About Me

I study Latin American Studies at SU because I have a great passion for South America. I lived in Lima, Peru for nearly 2 years, where I fell in love with the language, the nature, the culture, the history, and their way of living.
I am always down for a new adventure. I love to spend most of my time outdoors. I love rock climbing, kayaking, hiking, camping etc

When I'm not outside, I like to read and write, listen to music and podcast and I am always in for a random conversation.

My friends would say I'm a little bit crazy sometimes, an old soul, and somebody who seeks a true connection with people and nature.

Saludos

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to live with locals, to see the world through their eyes. I'd like to learn their language (slang words), adapt to the local habits. I wanna settle myself in their culture.

Music, Movies, and Books

I I love all kinds of music but I listen mostly to Spanish music.
The books I read are about history, poetry, historical novels.
I like books that describe a certain place or area, or that represent a certain problem.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived one year as an exchange student in Lima, Peru. Peruvians are amazing, their culture is so rich and they are just crazy in a good way. During this year I travelled to Colombia, Ecuador, Bolivia and chile.

What I Can Share with Hosts
