Overview
About Me
ABOUT ME
I'm a relaxed, easy going, respectful and open person who love to travel, meet people and to know new ways of life. I feel travelling is the best therapy for personal growth. Sports and outdoor activities like camping or hiking are my hobbies and always try to enjoy them wherever I am. What thrills me the most are the simpler things: the pleasure of building something useful, overcoming challenges, finding knowledge in my mistakes.
CURRENT MISSION
I think that for now my mission is to know myself as much as I can to project and give my best for humanity.
PHILOSOPHY
I always try to follow four principles of toltec wisdom that I found in a book called The four agreements. They are Be impeccable with your words, don't take anything personally, don't make assumption and finally always do your best. I would add the importance of seeing the best in everything and live without expectations.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love to travel and there is not a better way to know a place than through its people, their perspectives, thoughts, language, food, traditions or things they celebrate. To be a lonely traveler allows you to be flexible and share moments with locals that without this platform couldn't be possible.
I also think that good experiences should be given back, so to host people could be a good chance to travel and know another culture without moving home.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: I really enjoy listening traditional genres while I'm traveling. I love the music from the colombian pacific coast, cumbia, reggae, ska, blues, jazz and rock. I also like handpan or another relaxing instruments
Movies: Don't usually watch movies but Into the wild, Ladder 49 and Birdmand can be one of my favorites. Instead of movies I usually use to watch a lot of documentaries, from science and technology to history, social and political conflicts.
Books: 1984 - George Orwell is maybe my favorite one. But my likes can go from spirituality books to philosophy or even science and innovation.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
To live is the most amazing thing I've ever made.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach and Learn: I believe that every person you meet teaches you something. I would love to teach or learn new languages or skills.
Share: Experiences. I would love to find hosts, and to host people who are interested in doing things together.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Thoughts, perspectives, a good bottle of wine, music, singing and of course dancing. I also can help cooking or doing home chores.
