CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world, meet cool people, make art, learn languages, dance, laugh, have fun and stay young while doing so.

ABOUT ME

Hello, hallo, bonjour, oi, olá, hola, ciao, merhaba, salam! I'm a girl with an international taste who loves to laugh a lot and goof around. I also enjoy having interesting conversations about various subjects. I'm a music junkie. I love arts in all forms. I'm the annoying photographer who wants to stop any where at any time just to get a shot. I'm very energetic most of the times and I can't stand being sitting around. I could enjoy watching a foreign film on a rainy day, though. People who know me might say that I'm a good friend, extrovert most of the time, open minded, and that I can't be still. In fact, until I went to school I found out that my name was not "callate y sientate" which will translate into "shut up and sit down" and I love my family. I'm also considerate and I am a well behaved guest, I could also be quiet and even cook for you! Yay!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I cannot host at the moment but I'm willing to hang out during your travels and show you some cool places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new here and have not had one of my own...yet! I say that because during my most recent road trip my boyfriend was able to get us a place to stay in Austin Texas with a very lovely and welcoming couple. They were very charming and made us feel at home. I will never forget that. I also did meet some really cool coursurfers during my last adventures in Mexico and Germany.

Interests

I love learning and exploring new places. I'm addicted to spontaneous adventures. I love dancing. I can't live without music and listen to music from all over the world! Please feel free to share your favorite music via Dropbox. I would like to become a polyglot since I love learning languages. So, if you speak I language I don't know or I'm learning you will most likely be bombarded by "how do you say" type of questions haha I also like dancing... a lot! I'm always willing to learn a new dance and I'm always up for it: rain or shine hehe on the street, parking lot, just about anywhere. I love cooking, as in... real cooking with fresh vegetables and non frozen nor canned ingredients, no microwave, etc. I'm a slow cook. I mean I'm not slow, but I cook things low fire. I make up dishes and I also try to make my own versions of dishes from around the world. Let's call my cuisine: International Fusion, just like my dancing moves.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
