American-Chilean behavioral health researcher and PhD student based in Chicago, IL. I love traveling, both with friends and on my own. Big fan of live music, theater, drag and live comedy. Also a big data and social science nerd - could chat about about data visualization, social research, maps or cartography over a beer for hours.

I grew up between Santiago, Chile and California, USA. I'm fully bilingual (English and Spanish) and have family both in Chile and the United States. I currently live in the neighborhood of East Lakeview, Chicago. A lively and fun neighborhood near the lake, with a lot of bars, restaurants and thrift stores. I live just a few blocks from the L (Chicago's subway) and across from a Divvy bike station (Chicago is great to explore on a bike! Lots of bike lanes and everything is very flat).

I'm an easygoing and gregarious person. I always look forward to meet new people when I travel and build friendships across different locations. I'm also quite independent and autonomous, and can explore cities on my own for hours on end.

Looking forward to meeting incredible people during my future travels and and open my apartment to upcoming visitors!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled to a Chilean military base in the the Antarctic peninsula for two nights.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a curious soul, a great conversationalist and an active listener. I enjoy spending time with guests and hosts over a drink, a meal or a simple morning chat. I'm also happy to help out around the house, invite hosts out for a bite, help prepare meals.

Countries I’ve Lived In

Chile, United Kingdom, United States
