I am a 20-year-old from Medellín, Colombia, currently living in Kempten, Germany for my academic exchange.

I define myself with two words: Energy and Discipline. Back home, I am a semi-professional soccer player and an entrepreneur. I don't drink heavily or smoke; I value a healthy lifestyle and personal growth. I am very direct, honest, and independent.

Even though I am focused on my goals, I believe that travel is the best education. I am here to break my own bubble, meet people with different mindsets, and understand the real culture behind the places I visit.

I like discovering new cultures and especially getting lost in my city or around the world.
If you like football, I'd love to play a match or watch a Bundesliga game with you. I take sports seriously.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am not looking for a free hotel. I can pay for a hostel, but I prefer the richness of a local connection.
I want to see how you live and think. I am curious about your worldview. Whether you are an artist, an engineer, or a student, I want to learn from your reality. I am looking for good conversations (maybe about business, life, or history) and genuine moments.

Interests

I have an entrepreneurial mind. I am always analyzing how things work: why a business succeeds, how financial markets move (crypto or traditional), and especially the psychology behind sales. I enjoy listening to podcasts about founders and I am currently working on a SaaS idea for sports finance.

Football is my life, not just a hobby. As a semi-pro Striker, I love the competition and the strategy of the game. This connects with my obsession for discipline and personal growth; I follow the 'David Goggins' mindset -pushing the body and mind to the limit.

On the other hand, I am fascinated by Medieval History. Being a huge Game of Thrones fan, I love exploring Germany because I can see that history in real life. I enjoy the mystery of the past.

Musically, I vibe with Reggaeton and House. I love the energy of it and I dream of going to a big electronic music festival one day.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Playing for a local club where all my teammates are German (the best way to learn the language!) and playing matches with over 100 spectators watching me. Also, I was blown away by seeing a 3rd division stadium packed with over 15,000 people—the passion here is insane.
Riding a train for the very first time in my life (a huge milestone for me coming from Colombia) and exploring the breathtaking landscapes of Bavaria, including the Zugspitze (Germany's highest peak).

Teach, Learn, Share

TEACH (What I can give you):

1. I can teach you how to handle objections in life and business -because if there is no objection, there is no interest!

2. As a football player, I can teach you the most effective dribbling techniques to get past any defender. Or, if you are a beginner, I promise to teach you how to dominate the ball in just 10 minutes.

3. I will teach you the real Colombian communication:

-How to point at things using only your mouth (yes, we do that).
-How to ask a question just by moving your eyebrows.
-Essential slang like "Parce" (Bro), "Qué más?" (What's up?), "Hágale" (Let's do it), and the multi-purpose word "Chimba" (Cool/Awesome).

LEARN (What I want from you):

1.I am an open book. Teach me how to fix something, how to cook a local dish, or how your specific job works. I believe we learn by doing.
2. I want to improve my German and English level

SHARE (What we can do together):

I want to share a raw, honest conversation. I'm not a great dancer (I'm a "trunk" compared to Latinos, but maybe better compared to some Germans! 😉), but I bring good energy, black humor, and a direct approach to life

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer a true Colombian friendship. I can cook for you (Arepas or Patacones are my specialty!), help you practice Spanish, or play a football match with you. I am very tidy and respectful of your space.
