I am from Colombia and I am currently doing a masters in Electrical Engineering in RWTH Aachen. I love travelling and meeting new people while doing so. In my experience while travelling alone, meeting people with whom you have a connection is much better than just sightseeing.

I am open minded, always have a very positive attitude and I like to help people the best I can :).

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I have met incredible people through Couchsurfing and I hope to keep on meeting people with a good attitude towards life.

Throughout the spring of 2020 I would like to travel with my partner around Europe and it would be great to relive the Couchsurfing experience.

Interessen

I like cooking very much, although lately with my studies I only cook on the weekends and sometimes in the evening. Once in a while I enjoy mixing new things or making up something (sort of an experiment) with what I have in the fridge, which luckily turns out to be good most of the times.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I like almost every type of music, but I mostly listen to rock. When it comes to dancing I prefer latin music, such as salsa or merengue (reggaeton not so much), or carnival music from my hometown.

As for movies I tend to like those that are based on real life or close to a life experience. I have also learned to like alternative movies with my partner quite a biy. However, I have not gone to the movies in a long time especially because in Germany they translate most of the movies!

The last book I read was 21 Lessons for the 21st Century and I liked and agreed with Harari in most of his points of view. I am currently reading a book that is called "The Universe in your hands" which tries to explain astrophysics and quantum physics with metaphors and through journeys that broaden your imagination. I also like action novels and science fiction. I am a fan of Harry Potter, I went through the seven books plus "The Cursed Child" and "Fantastic Beasts" :P

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

There is not THE ONE thing that I have done, but I would say a combination of my travels.

I had one of the greatest experiences in my life while travelling across Europe in 2015 where I got to share a lot with people from Couchsurfing from different cities.

Back in Colombia in 2016, I made a group of friends from different nationalities and we travelled to different places within Colombia: Villa de Leyva, San Gil, the coffee region and the caribbean coast of Colombia. We used to hang out a lot in Bogotá and go for a drink and chat. It was a great time of my life where I worked by shifts and after 12 days of working I had several days off which I often used to travel.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I like teaching overall, so if I could help you with anything I know about languages I'd gladly do so. As a matter of fact, I continue doing online tutorings on physics and mathematics.

I would also like to continue learning from other cultures and teaching them about mine as well as talking about my country.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Chatting about life, philosophy or travels while sharing some beers. I can also share some beautiful pictures of Colombia and encourage you to go and visit.
