My name is Daniela, I am originally from Bogotá - Colombia where I went to school and lived until I was 18, on 2013 I moved to Boston to go to college as a Singer at Berklee College of Music. I was in Boston until July 2016 when I went for a 2 month holiday to India to practice meditation and ended up staying a little over two years! I started practicing yoga, reiki and meditation during my time there and got certified in the Osho international center as a facilitator, as a yoga teacher for hatha and vinyasa at a local school in Pune city called O-Yoga and as a reiki master in the first degree by Dr. Amar Kumar from the Reiki Kendra center from the Dr. Mikao Usui lineage.

I have travelled a little here and there around the world but I have an insatiable appetite to see more places, meet more people and live more experiences!

I am friendly, outgoing and I think i'm pretty funny but we can agree to disagree :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couch-surf because I have a couple of friends who really recommended the experience of using Couchsurf. I want to see the world and I love traveling but I think this website provides the opportunity to meet really cool and interesting people around the world while seeing new places as well as the opportunity of discovering through the eyes of a local!
