I was born and raised in Colombia. Came to the US when I was a teenager as a by-product of my parent's search of the American dream. Moved to NYC 4 years ago in search of big dreams of making money in the finance world. After a somewhat disapointing shortlived banking career and realizing that the best things in life are free I quit the job to travel the world. I like salsa dancing, snowboarding and I'm always up to trying new things. I love learning about the history and the people of the new places I visit.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I hope that during my trip around the world I can become more cultured by meeting new people and understand a bit more about myself!
