About Me

ABOUT ME

I’m 27 years old, born and raised in Medellín, Colombia. Still here but planning to travel in the short to mid-term, mainly with the purpose of acquiring a learning experience abroad, I work as Graphic and Web Designer.

I started playing around and being curious about arts, videogames, history and tech in general as a child, the graphic arts background is a heritage from my older brothers and my mom, and my old man was the one who taught me to be a pragmatical, curious and good-humored friend, willing to help whenever possible.

I also highlight a lot in my personal experience that I've been playing Rugby for 12 years and it would be really amazing to share experiences with sports enthusiast around the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm Couchsurfing because I've heard great experiences from people who've done it before, asides from that I do firmly believe in social interaction and cultural exchange as main subjects of change in our generation and many more to come.

I'd rather spend in a present or a nice meal cooked with a lot of love and a nurturing chat with my host than in hotels and the usual touristy plans.

Interests

I was closely in touch with photography as a teenager, a particular thing that lead me to enjoy and always try to understand other's perspective in other forms of art, let's share a kitchen, engage in conversation and learn about each other's experience while a cool tune is in the back!
