OLD POSTS WITH PERSONAL INFO AND TRAVELS :)
Living in Hialeah Gardens Florida USA rigth now. My closer goal at this moment is save enough money to assist the russian soccer world cup in 2018 and after that take the transiberian train that cross Russia, Kasajistan, Mongolia and China.

About me:
i am 26 years old, from Colombia, South America. Was born in a small city calls Bucaramanga (what a weird name isn't it? hehe). was living in Australia for 2 years, improving my English skills, getting a job and saving money to travel around Australia and south of Asia.
I studied my degree (Ecology and conservation) in Bogota, the capital of Colombia. and finished it on 2014. After that, i was traveling Brazil for the soccer world cup and stayed there 6 months (learned to speak Portuguese during that trip).

When i left Colombia 3.5 years ago:
at the end of 2014 i went to Straya to improve my english, studying, working and travel. After a year of hard work i bought a car and traveled 15000 km for 3 months with it around New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Capital territory and Northern Territory. In Melbourne and Adelaide, i did Couchsurfing for the first time and was a really good experience.
After an extra year of hard work in Sydney, i left Australia to be in Asia for 9 months. Was in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Myanmar, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Philipines, Hong Kong and Korea.

Today,
I came back to Colombia to be with my family again for a wild, till i organice again my ideas and projects related to my personal, proffesional and academic life. Also at this moment of my life i am working hard to save money for the russian world cup and trnasiberian train trip to do it on june 2018
