Hello!
My name is Natalia. I am currently studying Hispanic Philology in my home city, Medellin. Very curious, a good listener and open minded. I love cinema, literature, concerts and people with quirky humor. I also enjoy discovering new places (getting lost is kind of fun too), cultures and people, which is mainly why I joined Couchsurfing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Though I can't host right now, I like the idea of making meaningful connections through empathy and trust, which I believe is the whole idea behind Couchsurfing. I'm also passionate about learning all kinds of stuff :)

"Es, por tanto, una fuente de virtud para la mente experta aprender, poco a poco, primero a cambiar respecto a las cosas visibles y transitorias para así después ser capaz de dejarlas atrás por completo. El hombre que encuentra agradable su dulce tierra natal es todavía un tierno principiante; aquel para quien cualquier tierra es su tierra natal es ya fuerte; pero el hombre perfecto es aquel para quien el mundo entero es una tierra extranjera" (Hugo de San Víctor).

Interests

I mainly love films, hanging out and tasting new foods. Also, beer.

Getting lost (a lot) in Paris without a dime and still somehow finding my way back.
