About Me

Hi! My name is Karina and I'm from Peru, but I moved to Germany last year. Like everyone here, I love traveling, so I try to do it as much as I can. People say they feel the famous butterflies when they fall in love, I feel them every time I arrived to a new city :).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to meet people from different countries and learn about new cultures. There is always something new to learn, so... what's better than doing it through people who have been surrounded by that? :D

I knew about CS when I was volunteering in Arequipa (Peru) and met people from other countries who had used this page.

Interests

Knowing about new cultures and languages, making new friends and learning new things. Of course, I also love traveling, otherwise I wouldn't be here :P

Music, Movies, and Books

Pop, Pop/Rock. Actually, I'm open to listen to any kind of music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moving from Peru to Germany. I just decided to quit everything and start from zero. I wanted to travel and see how life in Europe is. Until now... it's been pretty awesome.

Teach, Learn, Share

TEACH: If you're interested in languages, I can definitely teach you some Spanish, since it's my mother tongue. Español no es muy difícil, así que terminarían sabiendo al menos las frases más importantes :D. I can also share tips about traveling to my country (Peru).

LEARN: As I mentioned before, I'm happy just learning about new cultures and people's way of life.

SHARE: I could definitely share a bottle of wine or some beer with you, while we have a good conversation. That's one of the things I like the most. If we have enough time, I could also cook some delicious Peruvian dishes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my knowledge about how different life in Lationamerica is. I can also make Peruvian food, which is one of the best in the whole world!
