I am a 22 years-old University Student born in Bogotá, Colombia. Currently studying music with emphasis in Sound Engineering. Music is my life and travelling makes also an important part of it. I love watching movies and series, playing volleyball, chess and talking about life.
I’m travelling with my brother who studies in France this summer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because besides the great experiences that travelling may give, knowing other people and cultures is one of the best things of travelling. I think Couchsurfing somehow combines the best of both experiences and what a better way of knowing how people of other cultures live than staying and sharing with them?

Music, Movies, and Books

Most difficult question ever.

Okey first music.
My favourite band is Radiohead, I simply love them. Other bands I like as well are Daft Punk, The Strokes, Arctic Monkeys, The Kooks, The Smiths, MGMT, Alt J, etc. Basically a lot of Indie Stuff as well as Latin Folclore Music, which I find really interesting.

About movies, my favourite director is Richard Linklater, so all the movies made by him I find them as pieces of art. Also Woody Allen, Quentin Tarantino, Christopher Nolan, David Fincher, Martin Scorsese, David Lynch among other directors I trully admire.

Probably my favourite autor for literature is Milan Kundera, followed by John Katzenbach. I love latin-american literature as well like Borges, Cortázar, Gabriel García Márquez, Ernesto Sabato, Carlos Fuentes, José Saramago, among others. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I sang with The Rolling Stones as a member of the choir when they came to Colombia.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach music to little children and even adults sometimes. Love to learn about everything I can, from physics to philosophy, I am always open-minded to learn about everything.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Besides a great time haha... I can share deep conversations about life, movies, music, books and some crazy thoughts I have about it. Other things, I am trully open to whatever plans hosts might find interesting to do as well as some good time playing/listening to music with them.
