About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Try to enjoy life and prepare for a little more travelling before settling in the mountains.

ABOUT ME

I am anthropologist who works hard but enjoys life at its best. I work in a market research international firm and although originally from Colombia yet studied in a was transferred to Lima in 2016 after living in Dubai and Buenos Aires. I love travelling although I have limited time during the weekdays

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoying every step of the journey. Work hard on the weekdays, enjoy life on weekends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I offer a couch and advice for people coming to Lima. I am also starting to surf with very little experience.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Very little, I have received some people while living in Dubai and Argentina but I have only surfed once in Spain. However, I have made long lasting friendships with people that use couch surfing for making friends.

Interests

I am very interested in getting to know local cultures (well, I am an anthropologist after all), very interested in music (going to rock concerts is a plus) and in contemporary art. I consider myself a foodie so getting to know ingredients and recipes is a plus!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like rock, reggae, soul, drum&bass, jungle and some Caribbean music. I am movie fans so expect watching a movie or two if your stay at my place.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So many great memories...Petra, India, Beirut, Oman...

Traveled through of The Caribbean...it is maybe my favourite place, so many people from so many parts of the world living around a beautiful sea!

My last nice experience was travelling through the Orinoco river (border between Colombia and Venezuela) and staying with indigenous communities.
