About Me

Open minded, respectful, and honest. I lived 10 months in Germany as an exchange student in 2013 and currently live in my home town, Guatemala City. I was an exchange student in Seoul, Korea from August 18th until December 22nd 2017.

Marketing student in Guatemala.

I love music, fitness, and adventures. I've got a lot to talk about, and I really like to listen to any crazy or funny story you might have; I also love a good conversation. My music tastes are very broad, you might be surprised. I always love a good game of FIFA!

If you are treated with respect and politeness, the least you can do is give it back. I try to make the best out of every opportunity I get, and to transmit something positive to every person I meet.

Oh, and I LOVE to EAT! I dare you to try to eat more than me ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I first heard of it, I was skeptical about it. But after trying it, I loved it! I also love experiencing the life of local people, not just the tourist point of view. Why not create a long-lasting friendship as well?

The first times I was hosted were in Zurich, Lucerne, and Bern in 2013; unfortunately, it was from a friend's account and she wrote our references to them 😧. Regardless, all of my experiences were great and so that helped me decide to keep on surfing.

Interests

My greatest passion at the moment is fitness. I love challenging and surpassing my limits constantly. I always enjoy a good song, whether it be Kendrick Lamar or Metallica, I believe every music genre has its beauty. I love to getting to know other cultures and customs, I can always learn something new from them.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music from Travi$ Scott, The Weeknd, Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers, ZHU, Kendrick Lamar, Cultura Profética, etc.

I love 80s movies, and I always enjoy a good comedy. However, my taste is pretty broad regarding movies as well. I am a huge Star Wars fan (yes, also the prequels), and some of my favorite movies are: Lord of the Rings Saga, Pulp Fiction, Terminator 2, Demolition Man, Rocky 4, Alien Saga, Space Balls, and so many more.

Books: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo saga, a couple of Paulo Coelho books, and some other misc stuff

Teach, Learn, Share

I can definitely teach some Spanish, English or German (bad words will definitely be taught). I have many many stories to tell, and love to hear them as well. I would love to learn foreign words or skills :) I am also somewhat of a Nutrition enthusiast, and I love to work out, so I'm a great workout partner (prefer to lift weights though). I can also do my best to answer any fitness questions you might have!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good stories, good company, I'm definitely a great eating/lifting partner!
