About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Know people and work as architect.

ABOUT ME

i want to travel around the world, that is one of the reasons why i decided to study architecture, if you are traveling and i can give some help for your trip, you can tell me, music, videogames, movies etc the things that like the most of people, manizales i have to say is the drunkest city in Colombia, be careful if you come here.

I am a colombian recently architect graduated from one of the most important universities in my country, a practice for us here is different, it is the opportunity when you graduate to find new approaches and in this moment of my life my priority is to find opportunities that provide me professional experiences, personal and cultural growth. Actually i exercise my career in the city of Bogota, where i learned how to handle the craft of architecture, from design and construction, so i am very satisfied with that, but i learned that in the professional growth of an architect is important to see other approaches and perspectives, leading me to consider the idea of working abroad, a multidisciplinary space, with people of different thoughts and places.

In the last year, i have the oportunity to know charming places, where I have friends and my ideas are accepted, I allowed myself to dream about the idea of going back and doing great things there, learn about their culture, language and thoughts about design and architecture. Knowing Europe and create links with people there, I felt finding a place where i could ascend to the road than an integral architect, i have to say that design is one of the thing i love, knowing more places led me to think that there is too much to learn, elements that i would apply to my current life context.
One of my goals now is to continue my studies in Foreigner Lands.
Is important to say the encourage i have from the people i met there, in Another places with my thoughts about knowledge, and the process to linking this adventure, that is dificult but not imposible, and the latency of the idea of not only personal but also collective improvement continue exist, from there is my courage.

PHILOSOPHY

You are not citizen of one country, you are citizen of the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
