About Me

Grew up in the south west of Colombia. Now living and working in Paris, but whenever I’m in Bogota or in Cali for holidays with my sister, we try to host as I don’t have enough space for Cs in my apartment in France (*now im hosting once in a while in Paris again) . We both love traveling and meeting people...we've been always interested in cultures, languages ( I need to improve my German danke🤦‍♂️)and music so this is the perfect way to expand on that!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used couchsurfing in Africa for the first time in 2013 (that first experience staying with a lovely family in Dar Es Salaam changed my perspectives about life) ever since i've been allowing people to stay at my place

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i had very positive experiences always, both hosting and traveling with CS. Real travelers are like living encyclopedias with backpacks. So having been able to talk to many of them is pure gold.

Please note this is not Airbnb nor tinder. Cs is a community of travelers looking for human connections with locals and fellow travelers. So take that in mind if you request to stay with me.

Interests

If I’m in the countryside or the beach, love hiking, riding horses and windsurfing, also rafting is growing on me. In big cities: art museums, theater, nice cafes and restaurants, also experiencing local nightlife. My professional life is intertwined with my hobbies so I love painting, sculpting and writing. Really enjoy having a nice talk (is that even a hobby?), Also like trying all sorts of foods when traveling, but I’m a mess for cooking .
