About Me

I'm 24 years old, I'm from Colombia but have been living in Paris for the past 6 years. I'm studying theater. I'm an adventurer, I love to travel and discover new cultures and get to know new people, that's one of the reasons why I speak multiple languages and hoping to speak more in the future, to be able to travel anywhere and communicate with people and be able to get even more immerse in their culture and traditions.

I was a competitive swimmer until a couple of years ago but had to stop due tu university, I continue to swim but not competitively, I also enjoy climbing and I'm hoping to do some sort of expedition in the future.

I'm passionate about photography and movies, and I've had the chance to travel to lots of different countries and hope to continue doing so, and try to capture as many pictures as possible and be able to tell stories and show people memories of my travels.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I want to start travelling more often and travelling by myself, and through CS it's a great opportunity to meet new people :)

Interests

To be able to travel and learn as much as possible.
I'm passionate about photography and film, and I hope I get to create great memories from my travels and through pictures or film be able to tell a story and make other people fall in love with the world and focus on more positive things.
I love to play the piano (I'm not that good because I only had classes when I was small) but I can remember some things... I also play the guitar, I learned by myself and I like to sometimes do private sessions in my apartment and pretend I'm a good singer, there's usually just me but whatever.

Kings of Leon
Ed Sheeran
Supertramp
Adele (with caution when I'm not in a relatively good mood)
You can never go wrong with some jazz

Christopher Nolan, I love most of his movies
Tim Burton, same
Harry Potter series

Marvel movies are my guilty pleasure
I also enjoy the Nouvelle Vague and Italian realism
