Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am willing to met new people and show them the place where I live. I am not currently hosting people because San Andrés people live from tourism (there are not many more options) and I don´t want to compete and also because we have water shortages and is hard to receive people. However, I think this is a beautiful project (I hosted when I lived in other places), always remembering that this is not a free hostel, is a project to make people from different places get to know each other and share their culture and experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A short but very nice experience in São Paulo and Belem do Pará (Brazil). A few months experience hosting and carrying people arround in Cartagena. A nice experience in Amsterdam.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Caribbean Music (specially french caribbean music and reggae roots) - African Music (specially soukous) - Colombian Music - There's only 2 types of music: good or bad, so I'm open to listen anything!
Movies: Love independent cinema, specially from Iran and Arabic Countries and also Latinamerican Cinema. But I love movies and might look to almost anything if necessary (not US comedies, please).
Book: Literature in general! I think that novels (just as movies) are a way of learning about different cultures so I try to read from writers all over the world. Like latin writes a lot!
