Heyy travelers!
i'm Ale, one of you. 100% a traveler. living the life far away form home . I have traveled for almost 4 years . Collecting experiences and memories around the world. Outdoor enthusiastic. In lover with nature, green landscapes, yoga and any kind of animals.

I left Colombia when I was 24 years old. I finished my studies as a designer at the university. I couldn't get a job that allowed me to live and save money. (And working to live is not life). My first work experience was crap. With a misogenous and greedy boss. In that moment I knew there I didn't want that life. so I packed my backpack with the excuse of learning English and so far I haven't returned.

I lived in a city full of prejudices and superficialities. Travelling I fall in love with nature. I love plants, mountains and beaches. They saved my life ,days of depression and anxiety are gone. Also taught me to set out to live simply.

I respect all kinds of thoughts and beliefs and at the same time I like to be respected.
I don't like lies, mistreatment to animals or nature and hypocrisy.

I just need a roof to be fine. I can sleep anywhere. I carry with My hammock, blanket, bowl and spoon. I don't eat pork or meat, chicken very rarely love vegetables and fruits.

I used to travel with a friend, she used her couchsurfing account for both of us, so our references are in her profile, But you see can the references I got in my photo gallery ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What is life about if u can't share special moments with great people. No matter where u go, where u are, if u are alone. Don't have anyone to have an unforgettable experiences.

Besides that there is nothing more pleasant than the happiness that gives to help someone. If you can't travel because you have other responsibilities, help other to fulfill their dreams. You will be traveling with that person by heart. The only thing you leave , when don't longer belong to this planet, are the memories you have left. I'm sure if you help someone. That person will never forget you, just as I have never forgotten my couch surfers. Always in my prayers. Thanks to the generosity of the people I have reached so far
