CURRENT MISSION

After working for 5 years in the beer industry, specifically in the marketing and insights field, I am now an entrepreneur studying a Marketing Master in the University of St Gallen, after finishing my master I want to work on a social project with a positive impact for my country Bolivia focused on social impact and/or tourism.

I am looking for spiritual enlightenment in this whole process. Getting to know myself is and has been an amazing challenge in the last 15 months.

I love to travel, I like to play soccer, poker, learn new languages and meet new friends, dance Salsa, read books and watch movies. I love the adrenaline of a bungee jump, I would love to try jumping from a plane one day: skydiving.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking for new friends, learn and keep learning, getting to see the world and helping others when they are visiting my city to find their way around

Interests

Meeting new people from different cultures......finding more and more sources of ideas and inspiration for the project i will pursue for Bolivia once i finish the Master that i am studying in Switzerland.
