About Me

Colombian graduate living in Italy. I am a very outgoing person and love to meet new people all the time. I like to share conversations and time with other people because those are the most educational experiences for me. I think our people and what they have to give us and teach us are the most valuable heritage.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Some years ago, I met an amerigan girl who was couchsurfing at a friend's place, she also became my friend and introduced me to the concept. Since then, I fell in love with the idea, because the best thing you can give to others is to share the few or much you have. Trough Cs I have always met the most interesting people ever!. I think that having the chance to share with people that otherwise you would have never encountered is a good opportunity to learn from them and teach them. I am constantly hungry for new experiences!.

Interests

Food and wine (coffee is my pasion), music, books, and everything that can feed my knowledge. I also love to meet new people, make friends and have nice conversations.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't like to say I have a favorite anything, because everything has a context to be enjoyed and every musical, literary gender or cinema has something to teach us. It depends on my mood and the environment I am in. I am very open minded to this. However, I enjoy a lot dancing specially latin music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Stayed at an indigenous village in India, slept in the family homes and participated at a traditional celebration ending up in the slaughter of a pig. This was very meaninful to the community and to me an experience that taught me a lot.

I have had amazing moments everywhere and with all the people I have met.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to listen to what people has to tell me about life and hear points of view. I learn a lot from others.
