About Me

CURRENT MISSION

A conocer!

ABOUT ME

I seek, in myself and others, passion, beauty, community, cooperation. A favorite pastime is devising delicious recipes out of whatever is in the fridge. I'm happiest when outdoors. I miss living in Colombia.
// Busco, en mi mísmo y en otras personas, pasión, belleza, comunidad, cooperación. Una actividad favorita es cocinando algo deliciosa de lo que haya en la nevera. Me hace falta vivir en Colombia.

PHILOSOPHY

"Who you are is very much defined by what you do in relationship wit other people. It's how much you give to others. We give object but they are just symbols. They are just to materialize the links. The highest gift is to recognize people, and accepting to be linked to them."
-Coumba Toure, Mali

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm brand new to couchsurfing, though have many friends who participate.
// Acabo de inscribirme a CouchSurfing, aunque tengo muchos amigos que participan.

Interests

I read voraciously, eat whole grains, drink red wine and belgian beer, and thoroughly enjoy the occasional dance party. I recharge by spending time outdoors, preferably on a bicycle.
// Leo mucho, como granos integrales, bebo vino tinto y cerveza belgica, y de vez en cuando disfruto totalmente una buena rumba. Me recargo estando en la naturaleza, preferiblemente en una bicicleta.
