About Me

I'm from a tiny, paradise/hell-like Caribbean island called San Andres, which belongs to Colombia.

I've lived in different big Latin American cities like Bogotá, Buenos Aires and Mexico, and had a long stay in the amazing Rio de Janeiro. I work as a journalist, and my passion is fiction writing!

I'm easy going, vegetarian, independent, respectful, and I loove sharing perspectives and perceptions in a good, deep conversation, whenever possible! I drink socially and don't smoke. I love outdoor as much as a city's cultural scene.

I'm interested in many topics; obviously international relations and geopolitics; Caribbean, colonial and postcolonial studies, and so on... I love learning about new subjects all the time, I like art and History, I either dance Latincaribbean rhythms like Salsa or Reggae, or cry to a piece of music from the Romantic period. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
