I am a person who enjoy travelling, meeting new people, eating different types of food and having new experiences.

I am originally from Colombia, but I have lived in different European countries (Germany, France, Spain, UK) during the last 5 years. I am currently living in Edinburgh, where I pursue a PhD in Computer Vision.

I have different hobbies, such as reading, listening to music, dancing (I love salsa) and travelling. I also enjoy cooking, especially trying new recipes or ingredients and cooking something from my country to show the world our food :) I practice yoga sometimes and like to learn new languages.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think is a fun way to travel while meeting new people.
