I'm Mariela 😊 a granddaughter, daughter, sister, friend, lover of animals, nature and sports.
A cheerful person who likes to make people laugh, open-minded and enthusiastic about meeting new friends and learning about other cultures and new things.

I consider myself an unconditional friend, no matter what country you are in 😊

If I have the opportunity to be your host, I promise a very cozy atmosphere because my two grandparents are very kind people who make an effort to make their guests feel at home, tours guided by me to different places in my country.

I have a kitten named MichiAngelo.

Philosophy:
"The world is too big not to explore it."
"Make things happen."
"Enjoy the little things"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I know what it feels like to be in a country that is not yours without knowing anyone and needing a friendly face and support, I believe that couchsourfing helps you find that friend you need in those moments of fear, that friend that with a small act of humanity stays in your heart forever.
