About Me

Hi, I am Laura!
I'm a venezuelan girl who moved to Madrid few years ago. I love to travel and discover new cultures by their people, food or landscapes, but when I can't take my backpack to visit the world I open the doors so the world can come to me.

I describe myself like a resourceful person, brave, creative and enemy of the comb. My friends consider me as a very sociable and outgoing one. The true is that I really enjoy a good conversation, a beer, to dance or do exercise.

When I was a child I wanted to be a guide tourist, but even though I studied and work in something different (business development) I don't lose hope, so I appreciate this kind of communities that allows me to get closer to my initial idea.

PHILOSOPHY
Karma is only a bitch if you are! (T. Sennerholt)
Aprende como si fueras a vivir toda la vida, y vive como si fueras a morir mañana. (C. Chaplin)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really enjoy discover new cultures and people.
My first contact with this iniciative was in Caracas, where I met Bill. He is a canadian guy who never had been in Venezuela and decided to embrace the adventure visiting my country. Was exciting for me to show him my city and understand how my common life (places, food, etc.) was new and interesting for another person.

And that's exactly how I feel when I meet locals or follows their recommendations in Europe.
