Hi there!
My name is Cristina, i´m 23 years old and I come from the north of Chile. I was born and raised in a coastal city named Antofagasta located in the most arid desert in the world. I studied Tourism in Valparaiso, and I have being living and working in Patagonia for three season by now. I work as an excursion guide in the famous W trekk in Torres del Paine National Park, the 8th Natural World Wonder. During the last 5 years I have being moving a lot, so I'm not afraid of changes, accually I'm really good at adapting to all kinds of situations and weathers. I love being outside doing outdoor sports and being sourronded by nature. I also love arts like teather, painting, poetry, arquitecture, cinema, etc. I'm a responsible, creative, friendly and pasioned person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm in couchsurfing cause I love to travel, cultural exchange and sharing with people. I think this is a really good way to get to know locals. Now my next adventure is travel to Europe with my boyfriend for one year. So i'm very ansious, happy and ready for everything that may come!
