About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Travel. To live is to travel. There is no other reason to be in this world than to wander and discover as much as possible.

ABOUT ME
I've lived in Medellín, the USA, Mexico, Brazil (RS), and now I'm back in Colombia—at least for a while. Currently based on the northern coast (Chinú, Córdoba). I love music, cooking food from around the world (let's share recipes!), learning about different cultures, and photography. I enjoy both small talk and deep conversations.

PHILOSOPHY
Carpe Diem, Quam Minimum Credula Postero. Seize the day, trust little in tomorrow.
I'm very open-minded—hippie in spirit, but with structured routines... you'll see. My humor leans dark, and I'm not one to worry much; I'd rather enjoy the unfolding of life on this little rock we call Earth.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
For now, I'd love to meet up for drinks or share a meal. Once I have a more permanent place, I'll start hosting again.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Most of my Couchsurfing experiences so far have been positive. Black sheep are everywhere, of course. I'm not comfortable with messy or dirty guests, but I see that as an occupational hazard of sharing spaces. I'm also not keen on people who are just looking for a free place to sleep.

Interests

I'm a very basic person. Eat, drink, fuck, travel. On upper levels: Photography, art, theater, cooking, walking around.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies... the ones with good plot.
Books... the ones with good plot.
Music... all the rhythms. Well, almost all of the rhythms. I love discovering more and more all the time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travels. Always travels.
Motorbyke trip from Medellín to Bogotá. Walking around and eating everything in Mexico. The Machu Picchu landscapes, the Brugge streets, the Poland people, the Czech beer...

Teach, Learn, Share

I can "teach" you about photography, cooking tips, music, history, politics, sexuality, personal interactions, bad jokes, and trips.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Trip tips. Travel stories. Recipes. A good meal. Bad jokes. Photography tips (or maybe even some studio photos).

MY PLACE:
I don't have one at the moment. I’m planning to settle near the Colombian north coast soon.
