About Me

Hi, I'm Diana, I'm from Colombia, South America. I'm an English teacher and I worked in a private school in Chandigarh - north of India between 2014 and 2015. Also, I travelled by bicycle through south America in 2016 I visited Equator, Peru, Chile, Bolivia and Argentina. Now I'm living in Colombia again, (in Mocoa), however, I am moving out continuously from one place to another. Nowadays, I don't have my own place to offer accomodation, but if you are coming to the south of Colombia or want to visit Putumayo I can give you pieces of advise, recommendations of amazing natural places or even going for a walk or bike riding with you.

I love travelling and learning new things in my way. I love sports and my favorite one is mountain biking. I love reading and meditating.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet more people like me that love travelling and find good people that can help me and I can aid as well. I prefer to meet locals since they can show me their traditions, places and cusine.

Interests

I love to learn more about the places that I visit, such as: culture, language, beliefs , traditions and perceptions of life. I like sharing time with locals, since they can show you the best way to experience the new place that you are encountering. Also, I like to explore the nature, hiking, and camping.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to listen to arabic Jazz, african percusion, social music, and of course Rock and roll.

Concerning movies, I like to wach independent Films. Psychological Thrillers are my favourite ones.

Regarding books, well I like literature but I prefer to read about sociolinguistics and cultural studies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Himalayas mountains for 15 days, I camped there and I stayed in a Buddhist monastery.

I did a spiritual retirement in which I had to live like a Buddhist monk for 11 days in complete silence.

I cycled for 7 months through South America. I rode my bicycle through Andes mountains between 4000 and 4500 mts of height.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach what I have learned throughout my trips, my experiences of life and of course I can teach my native language and English. I want to learn new ways of enjoying life and travel safely with a limited budget. I want to share adventures, stories and many things more...
