Hello, Ciao, Hola, Mari Mari!

My name is María José, but you can call me Coté (my nickname). I'm a Chilean girl living in Italy. Currently, I'm doing my Ph.D. at the Università Degli Studio di Padova.

I love science as well as sports and traveling. I'm a runner and dog lover. I have been vegetarian for 7 years, I love wine, beer, and french fries. I cannot survive without avocado and beans.

I like to learn new things from others and share my knowledge. I'm looking forward to meeting new people and to get to know different cultures!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think is a great opportunity to meet people from different countries, make new friends and also to share a little bit about my culture with others.
