I'm Felipe Carvajal, a 33-year-old architect and civil engineer from Colombia with a passion for travel, cultural exchange, and connecting with people from all walks of life. I'm an avid nature enthusiast, always seeking out new adventures and beautiful landscapes to explore. When I'm not immersed in the world of design and construction, you'll find me whipping up delicious meals in the kitchen.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always believed that travel is more than just visiting new places; it's about immersing oneself in different cultures, connecting with genuine people, and creating meaningful experiences. I recently came across the amazing Couchsurfing platform, and I'm excited to explore the opportunities it offers. I'm drawn to the platform's emphasis on authentic connections, cultural exchange, and the chance to learn from others' perspectives.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
