About Me

- In traveling I don't have internet access in my phone! Sorry if answer you take me some time :(! -

(Petite chilean person, hahaha)

I want to keep falling in love with life through traveling, meet new people, their stories and their culture. I want to experience adventures and learn new and different things about life! For me, as a just graduated psychologist, it's very important to validate and respect different worldviews and try to understand as well how and why people feel that they belong to a particular culture. I want to know what makes them follow a certain way of life and how they interact with others.

WRITINGS THAT REPRESENT ME:

- La gente que me gusta (Mario Benedetti):
Inglish: http://tumblr-en.will-i-be.com/post/34761181383/the-people-i-lke-i-like-the-people-that-vibrate

- Bailando para no estar muertos (Ray Bradbury)

P.s: Although I love to talk and share, I also value and respect moments of solitude that each person may need...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a couple of Chilean friends who have traveled by couchsurfing before and I fell in love with its concept. It allows us to embrace the beauty of different cultures and meet new people. I believe it is very important to visit places in the most natural way possible. I have the feeling that they will be amazing experiences!

Interests

I love trying new types of food and I like to do sports, listen to live music, discover new works of art, travel around the city by foot or bike and find new and different places to enjoy a cup of tea or a glass of wine :)! I am also interested in learning new things, which is why I am open to new cultural experiences

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC: My taste in music is very wide, it would be very difficult for me to describe what I precisely like. For instance, some of the live concerts that I've gone to are Churupaca, Aerosmith, Joe Vasconcellos, Nano Stern, Pearl Jam, Kiss, Zoe and The Cure

BOOKS: Authors of the "Latin American Boom" (Cortázar, Benedetti, Jorge Luis Borges), Ray Bradbury.
From the side of Psychology, even though I'm no expert, I have enjoyed reading Michael Foucault, Donald Winnicot, Jessica Benjamin, Marcelo Pakman and Cristóbal Holzapfel.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Interesting conversations and good company! I love making people laugh as well as laughing at myself. I would love to share stories and different lifestyles, as well as show you some of our Chilean traditions in the same way I'd like to learn about yours.

P.s: Also I can show you how to dance reggaeton! Hahaha
