About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to learn, about anything and everything, but learn

ABOUT ME

I think traveling is the best way to learn. Hosting travelers is the best way to know about other cultures, people, and have a nice time sharing a bit of my own "world".
I'm just a normal guy, who studies and tries to smile to the world.

PHILOSOPHY

I have to learn more from living and from the world to really have one that I can share

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Both host people and be hosted.
I want to learn about your culture, your country and your experiences. As a bonus I can practice my language skills, that's sweet.
But the very most important objective is to have fun with people like you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted a few GREAT people and each time has been a very nice experience. I'm sure i want to keep doing this and to do it better everytime. Also had amazing experiences as surfer!

Music, Movies, and Books

lots of movies, specially if they make you think. the godfather, Lynch, kurosawa.

I like Yann Tiersen the most. Andean music, cancion protesta and classic jazz... Cuban music is wonderful as well, but classic Rock is vital. pink floyd, the doors etc. and always good dancing salsa

the books are a complex thing. there are always wonderful pieces like most from saramago. I like mr potter as well, he's wonderful. war books are always fine as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i traveled through europe. it was wonderful. met lots of places and people, had lots of fun.
i think there is a whole world full of amazing things waiting to be seen

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll teach some biology, and maybe some chemical engineering. At least that's what I'm studying!
I know some history about my land, not enough though, but we can share that. I want to show the people who visit me all i can about colombian food, i would really appreciate if they can show me about theirs. Culture and fun, those are things i want to share.
