I'm Jeison, 27 years old. I'm a Colombian language teacher who recently graduated from his masters degree in clinical linguistics and in teaching Spanish as a foreign language. I’m currently looking for inspiration for my PhD proposal. I love learning about different cultures, different languages, and different philosophies in life.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and sharing experiences and dreams with them. I have learned so much from people who have different views in life, and those interactions are just priceless to me.
I also believe that helping each other is the way to go when it comes to co-existing on our beautiful planet.

Intereses

Basketball. Singing. Drawing.

Música, películas y libros

Bruno Mars. Adele. Shawn Mendes. The weekend.

Algo increíble que he hecho

One of my best adventures was a 3-day camping trip in the amazing Tayrona Natural Park in Colombia with some friends.
I also spent the night in central park in NY. Yeah, I slept on a bench, hehehhe.
One of the most incredible things I have done was accepting the challenge of teaching at a university when I was 22 years old, for I learned and grew so much both personally and professionally.
I also jumped into a frozen lake in Minnesota as part of the Polar plunge that raised money to help our paralympic athletes.
I swam in a Finnish freezing lake after relaxing in a Finnish Sauna 🧖‍♂️

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can teach you Spanish and English, for I am a language teacher. I like dancing Salsa, bachata, merengue, and I can teach you guys some moves. I am not very good at reggeaton or perreo, but I can teach you to move your hips as well. If we can get the right flour, we can cook arepas together.
I also adore basketball and have played since I was little we can shoot some hoops together.
I'm currently brushing up on my French.
I'd like to learn how to cook better and I want to learn how to play more board games; I feel like I'm not big on those games.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Good conversations and exchange of experiences. We can dance and sing together if they like that. I can cook and help in the house as well.
