About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Looking for myself

ABOUT ME

I want a better world, that is why I am feminist and vegan, and work in building peace in Colombia.
I don't use this very often that is why I don't have many references, but I can asure that I'm a very kind person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people around the world

Interests

I feel myself when I´m dancing and working with the body. I do yoga, modern dance and afro rythims.
I love travelling and enjoy way too much eating, is one of my biggest pleasures. I get very tired about everything is happening in the world so I need to scape from it once in a while, that is why I love to watch series and spend the day at my bed with my cat and dog.

I have found a beautiful woman with who I share the passion for travel, so we have been in Ecuador, Brazil, England and Belgium, plus other places inside of Colombia, in less than a year. Next is California!

I´m very lucky!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite band in the world is Queen, and I consider myself a rock girl. Recently I have discover tropical house and electronic music that combines with folk music and love it. Also I like brazilian music, specially bossa nova, and some modern colombian bands that make the combination I was telling about.

I do not have a favourite movie, they depend of the moment of my life. Some of them have been Amelie, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Kill Bill and The science of sleep....

My favourite author is Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While travelling:
Looking for dworfs in Wroclaw

In life:

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to cook vegan food, and give you an idea about colombian reality.

I am very open minded person so I am always open to learn from other cultures and knowledges.
