About Me

I'm an English teacher who likes to discover new things, even in my own town. I like to meet new people and learn from them. When I travelled abroad for the first time, (to Ecuador) it was amazing, I changed my way of perceiving things, now I want to continue traveling and leaving a track on people, just like they leave it on me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I do not enjoy high society trips and etiquette for vacations. I like to feel and live the real world when I travel. I can learn more if I get to know the local people than lying on a hotel bed.

Interests

I enjoy working out -although I do not do it very often- I love reading, dancing, taking pictures of landscapes, trying new restaurants, being with my friends and family, I like reading and watching movies and of course... I am crazy about traveling.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really like metalcore, bands such as Killswitch Engage, Darkest Hour. I like hardcore, like Hatebreed, Ignite, Agnostic Front, Madball, etc. I really like Nü Metal, bands such as Slipknot, System of a Down, POD, etc. I also like classical music and Neo classical, for instance Olafur Arnalds and Ludovico Eunadi.
Books? a lot... I am reading from Michael Foucault and Octavio Paz.
I love a lot of movies, but I love to watch "Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind" over and over again.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To be honest, I do not know what amazing means here. It is relative, I have done Bungee Jumping, but that is not amazing for some people. I think that something amazing I have done is to change the mind of some people and show them that education is their most powerful weapon.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would teach you all I can, all what you want to ask me to teach you. Of course I am an English teacher, but I am more than that. Just ask.
I am willing to learn from people's customs and way of seeing the world; I just love learning from the difference.
I would share my experiences and my memories, my knowledge and my help whenever I can.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you do not know Colombia, I can be your best guide, or if you know it, I would share what I know. I like to be kind with people. I can share food, shelter whenever I can.
