Hello! I'm Paola, born in Cali, Colombia, the land of joy and the Salsa Capital of the World. I work as a journalist in the public sector, where I cover sustainability and civic culture. I'm passionate about telling stories that inspire positive change!

I'm a master's athlete and compete in the 100, 200, and 400 meters. I love leading a healthy lifestyle!

I'm easygoing, cheerful, and respectful. I love traveling and experiencing new things: from nature walks to discovering urban corners.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I love meeting new people, exploring different cultures, and making friends around the world. I enjoy authentic experiences, learning about local customs, and sharing a bit of my city and country.
