Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Soy de Canada, pero en este momento estoy trabajando en la Alianza francesa de Barranquilla. Mi contrato se termina en mayo, y de ahí mi sueño más profundo es hacer escalada en Colombia!
ABOUT ME
I like to explore, to move, to experience new cultures, new lifestyles, new ideas...
I also think that it's essencial to always keep on learning, and being a better person
PHILOSOPHY
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
When I can't host, I offer to be a «tourist guide». It's always fun cause it makes me rediscover my own city.
When I host, I like to visit the city with couchsurfers and hang out, I like when we cook together and drink wine...!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Couchsurfing didn't just provide me a bed here and there... it brought me friends for life.
Interests
Traveling. In my travels I mostly go for nature. I love climbing on volcanoes, visiting national parcs, scuba diving, snorkeling, kayaking, rockclimbing, etc.
I'm also passionate about wildlife photography. I usually organise my travels around that activity.
In my everyday life I practice yoga, rockclimbing and bicycle.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Amazing: being under water (snorkeling and diving) I completely forget about everything else, I'm «submerged» in an other dimention (haha) and then, when I have that first glance at that seal, that whale shark, that octopuss... it's joy at it's purest source.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach how to snorkel, vegetarian cooking, dance bachata, speak spanish or french...
Puedo enseñar francés y conmigo también pueden practicar el inglés. Soy profe de lenguas. Ah y me encanta bailar bachata, puedo enseñar a bailar bachata (creci en República Dominicana).
What I Can Share with Hosts
I always like to cook for my hosts and share a beer, of course!
Bueno, puedo cocinar, compartir una cerveza, un vino, lo que sea, el todo acompañado de conversaciones sobre todo y sobre nada. En fin, compartir un pedacito de vida...
