About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Tightly holding the machete, making my way through.

ABOUT ME

Currently a student at Universidad de los Andes, in Colombia. Though my passion resides in music, I am a business major. Looking forward to integrate both subjects into my life (professional?).

Love music, any kind, I love composing, producing, and managing music. (www.myspace.com/escapecios <- this is what I do). NEW PROJECT: www.myspace.com/juepucha

Though I am not well-read in philosophy, I love just to talk about subjects related with it.

Love computers, the basic stuff, or at least what you can get to see in the screen, not the 00110101.

I enjoy watching documentaries, films, short films. No TV please.

Anything you want to know about Colombia, I'd be happy to talk to you about it.

Back and ready to host. Bring it on.

PHILOSOPHY

Personal motto - why not?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a room available in my house. I have couchsurfed in some places in Asia, now it's time to give back.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Been in Manila surfing with great people. Attended a CS party (awesome by the way). Couchsurfed in Hong Kong. Hung out with some CS travellers that went through Macao! Couchsurfed in Saigon for a week and had the best time with CSers from all over the world! I think we did succeed on a couchsurfing Record. 8 surfers at once.
