About Me

I am Colombian, currently I study a Master program in the Poitiers University in France. Some words that could help to describe myself are: courageus, tactful, discret, openminded. I prefer to make de most of my time so laziness is not a word to me.

I'm a very curious person. I'm good at listening people stories. I think each person teach me something about life and that makes me better. I respect the diversity in all kind of fields: culture, religion, sexuality, politics, ethnics. I believe in multiculturalism and tolerance of difference.

I enjoy visiting natural places and doing ecotourism as well as I enjoy walking in a big city. I love pets. That's why I decided to study Biology.

I speak english and french enough fluent to keep a conversation going. I hope this is not going to be a problem ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm not a guided tourist nor a resort 5 stars one, when traveling I don't use to visit only de touristic places, then take thousands of photos and left. I prefer to get immersed in each place by myself, what better than being accompanied with a host.

I'd be happy to keep in contact with and host you in my home in Colombia as well as you did.

Interests

Definitively, traveling.

I love to dance a wide range of music genres. I don't do it professionally, i'm just amateur. I prefer mainly the latin and african rhythms

I use to spend my time doing different sports as football, biking, indoor climbing, volleyball.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived with an indigenous community in the Colombian Amazon Forest for 2 months. During that time I learned how they prepared their food. I lived with no commodities as communication or electricity. What a great experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not sure I'm idoneus to teach someone or something but I can share with you my vision of the world, my experiences based on the places and cultures I've visited. I'd love to tell you about my country, our traditions and change a little bit those clichés we have abroad.

If you speak spanish it would be great to practice and share experiences about the places you have visited and the way you learned it.

We can try to dance salsa or bachata, I don't assure we are going to succeed but for sure we will have fun.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As I said before I use to movie from one place to another so I don't stay long time in the same town. However it would be a pleasure for me to host you in Bogotá when I was back and show you the beauty of my country.
