Overview
About Me
Chilean girl who decided to travel as much as she can. Everything started when my beautiful older sister invite me to join her on her trip to Easter Island (Chile!) for two weeks and live togheter with on the native . I was blow away, to be able to travel around that beautiful island and be guided by one of the person who knows every detail, to see and heard everything from a native who truly loves their culture and everything around them; by the end of my trip i decide i have to do it again.
When finally i had time to keep traveling a join a friend on her holidays, Dominican Republic was her choice, it was one me most beautiful places i've ever seen but it was different from my previous experiences, we stayed on a resort, full of tourist, amazing food and entertainment, was fantastic but we couldn't really know the culture or any other aspect of the country , we're able to make friends with a couples of guides who show us a bit of how things really were but besides that it felt like we're on a prison, the country was so amazing but what it makes my travel enjoyable before was able to see and meet locals, been able to see a country with their eyes.
So i decided to start traveling, i quit my job and i start a working holiday in Australia one the most amazing experiences in my life, been able to live and share so many things with people from all countries
Theres is no better way to get to know a place but by they eyes of the person who lives there.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I heard of Chouchsurfing in Australia, my roommate introduce me to an amazing girl who's been traveling for a year doing CS all over Europe! She describe CS as one the most wonderful experience and encourage me to do it; this is my first time traveling solo, so i would love to have a helping hand to gain some confidence with traveling and show me a little bit of each place, not only the tourist part but with the eyes of someone who truly knows it.
