Hello there! I’m Gabriela. I am from Bogotá, I work as a product designer and I’m in the “try” of becoming a nomad. I’m a big fan of outdoor sports, cooking and eating every kind of foods (except papaya) and I like learning new languages.
I’m a curious and easy going lady, very talkative, spontaneous and friendly. I love the ocean, the sun, new adventures and in my free times I illustrate psychedelic characters.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I personally think that the best way to know the world is through other people’s eyes and their experiences so i can have a wider perspective of life. I like to share genuinely.

Interests

I love nature, camping, cooking, painting with acrylics and reading books. cooking several dishes (my special are mashed potatoes) and a nice wine in my home with my dog Sheldon.

My favorite music is electrocumbia, hard techno and 80s pop. While I’m working I like rap and sone soft rock. I love salsa but not the pink one is very cheesy and i enjoy dancing. My current favorite writer is Yuval Noah Harari but I love Latin American writers (favorite Julio Cortázar and gabo) and Nordic thrillers. Some of my favorites movies are, interstellar, salon kitty (Italian) and I love series such as Atlanta, stranger things and my favorite, The Ozsrks
