Hi! My name is Monserrat, and I come from Chile. I'm a journalist working in a NGO called "Te Protejo", an organization who promotes non animal tested products around Latin America. I've been a vegetarian for 10 years now, and I love to go out for a beer with friends.

I would love to take in guests sometime soon when I have a proper space.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm in couchsurfing because I love the idea of getting to meet new people around the world . The possibility of learn from a local about his/her culture is so much better than going to hostels.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you a little bit of spanish if you want to learn (I studied Hispanic Literature and Journalism). I can also cook vegetarian food, and share a meal and conversation :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook vegetarian food and I really enjoy talking about different topics and learn new things. Also, I'm a very clean person, so the mess wouldn't be a problem with me.
