Overview
About Me
Be a better human being every day. I consider myself a kind and happy person, a good partner and friend, who always sees the positive side of people. I love to learn about new cultures, which is why I would like to interact with people from other countries and acquire new experiences and friends.
I am a Corporative Communicator, Public Relations officer and Journalist. I write travel stories and lifestyle articles for important magazines.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love traveling and I am aware of how important it is to be a good host. This year I opened a hostel in Quito particularly for foreigners that want to feel the experience of feeling at home away from home, in a very cozy and comfortable place.
Interests
When I was seenteen years old, I did my school or college? exchange studies in Germany. This great experience proved to me that traveling is the greatest way to gain wisdom and spend money in life. I have also visited some countries in North America, (USA and Mexico) and Europe (Germany, Italy, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Switzerland). I hope that my next destination will be Asia and the Middle East.
I am not a Chef but I would like to study this career in a near future. I love to cook and I also know a lot about traditional Ecuadorian gastronomy. A few years ago I worked with a famous chef writing his book about traditional Ecuadorian soups. This book won the second place like the best cook book of the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When I was seenteen years old, I did my college exchange studies in Germany. This great experience proved to me that traveling is the greatest way to gain wisdom and spend money in life. I have also visited some countries in North America, (USA and Mexico) and Europe (Germany, Italy, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Switzerland). I hope that my next destination will be Asia and the Middle East.
1. I had the chance to meet people from all over the world in my exchange experience with Rotary Club in Germany.
2. I visited Mexico, a spectacular country to which I would like to return.
3. I became convinced that Ecuador is the most beautiful place to live and where I want to grow old.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am a passionate and devoted salsa dancer. When I was nineteen years old I started practicing this activity. Throughout the years I also learned to teach this rhythm to foreigners. I have won dance competitions in Ecuador and I still teach once in a while. Nowadays I am dancing for a professional salsa team in Quito to represent Ecuador in upcoming world competitions.
