About Me

Im a friendly and proactive person. I like traveling, meeting new people and talking about deep topics. By the other hand, I also like having time for my self to read, watch a film (mostly documentaries) and meditate.

Im 27 years old, grew up and lived mostly Colombia. For different reasons had the chance to go to live for a while to El Salvador, Brasil and now Im England for my master studies.

Even though Im just starting into filmmaking, is something I really like and will love to learn more and more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I like the idea of traveling and meeting people from the places I go. I like it not because its cheaper but also because it give you the chance to see the places from a different perspective.

In the moment I don't have any space to host someone but I would like to with out a doubt.

Interests

Filmmaking is one of my biggest interests by the moment. I am learning to become a documentarist and film director.

Im also interested in good food! It is our main power source and we should enjoy it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I like almost everything, not much of a music-lover/knower but I like some tropical and latin like salsa, merengue and reggaton but mostly some pop/indy like Bleachers, OneRepublic, Ed Sheeran, Of Monsters and Men, The Script, list could go on.

Movies: I like everything that can make me better as a filmmaker, even stupid movies that will teach me what not to do =). Some documentaries I recommend are I Am by Tom Shadyac, most of the ones by Michael Moore, A Small section of the world. The list could also go on.

Books: Not much of a reader. Love reading stuff in the internet like articles and news tough.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Don't like talking much about amazing things I have done. I try to help people every time I can and share some joy.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach anything you would like to learn from me. Some things could be spanish, english or portugese, some stuff about filmmaking, Colombian culture, meditation.

Learn as much as I can and my host is willing to teach. No learning is bad so Ill try to absorb as much as I can.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my honesty, responsability and organization. Can also share some good times and thoughts.
