I am 19 years old and am from Colombia Bogota I have been mostly raised In Calgary Alberta. I enjoy learning and sharing with others very much and am always looking for new opportunities to improve myself and become inspired by the community around me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am couch surfing as I am trying to plan out a little trip to get away from my current reality in the Canadian Rockies and just snowboard. While doing so I feel I would really benefit from meeting some of the locals and getting a better glimpse at the small towns I want to be staying in. I have also been planning a trip to south america for the summer and feel it would be extremely beneficial both cost wise and for experiential purposes to couch surf through out it. I would love to submerge myself in the culture of the places that I visit and as I plan to travel a lot throughout my lifetime I want to be able to make connections and friendships around the world! I also want to contribute the same love acceptance to the global community when I move out on my own and am able to return the hospitality and experiences I received throughout my adventures.

Music, Movies, and Books

My taste in music is very scattered though my favorite genre is definitely rock and roll I am a major fan of the oldies such as the doors, the Beatles, floyd, zeppelin, etc. I also enjoy reggae and dub music as well as salsa and meringue and I can appropriate some rap music. I also have a taste for select electronic. I enjoy folk music as well as indie and alternative rock . Some of my favorite books include: Conversations with God, The book of Tao, Siddhartha, The Kite Runner, In the Garage, The perks of being a wall flower, The Bhagavad Gita, Lord of the flies, and many books about native plants species and animals. Some of my favorite movies are, Train spotting, The tree of life, The wall, The doors movie, La Belle Vert, Camille Claudel, Y tu mama tambien, Vickie Christina Barcelona, Juno, The butterfly effect, I am and a variety of documentaries.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I feel that some of the things I take most pride in myself involve helping others and so what I view as the most amazing thing that I have been able to do so far in my lifetime beyond my special adventures and exterior experiences would be the impact that I have had on some of my close friends and family's lives.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am more than willing to share and teach yoga, spanish, cooking, hoop dancing, jewelry and art making. I would love to share laughter and reiki and love and adventure and the exchange of philosophical conversation and I am open to learning anything that wants to be introduced to me. Though, I would really like to learn a bit more about permaculture and gardening and would be oh so grateful to receive new knowledge on these subjects. I would also be very open to film and novel suggestions and to learning new languages.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share stories, smiles, growth inducing conversation, laughter, yoga, reiki, cooking and hoop dancing for anyone interested !! (:
