Hola! I'm Paola .I am very outgoing and love conversation and exploration. I am a futbol fan, love listening to music and I am trying to learn to play the guitar.
I just graduated with a bachelor's in Political Science and I work in Human Rights in the United States.
I was recently asked what my passion was and I had the realization that my passion is connecting with all kinds of people. This explains why I travel, why I work in the field that I do and why I seek to learn as many languages as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

my favorite part about traveling has been all the interesting people i've met along the way, many who have shared something , whether it is a philosophy or a skill or just cultural exchange, that has impacted who I am today
