I am a teacher and traveller who loves being outdoors, new challenges, and is always for people to connect and share stories and experiences with. I’d describe myself as open & welcoming with a love for nature and culture.

Living in the vibrant city of Medellin now con mi amor Darwin & learning Spanish

Dreaming of long bicycle trips and hikes into the unknown

All about developing my sense of direction

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To explore other cultures and connect with people. To see a place from a local’s viewpoint! To travel more openly and to get the most out of the places I visit.
