Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Simplemente porque me encanta viajar!!!!
Y creo que es una excelente idea el concepto de poder compartir experiencias con personas que viajan, y al mismo tiempo contribuir a que el costo de viajar sea mas accesible para todos.

Just because I love traveling !!!!

Interests

Hace algunos años que practico bicicleta de montaña, he participado en maratones y estoy incursionando en ultramaratones, no tengo excelentes tiempos ni records, me gustan estas actividades porque te permiten esforzarte por ser un mejor tu cada día, no compites contra nadie, solo contigo mismo y eso es lo que busco cada día: ser una versión mejor de mi misma, en todos los aspectos.

Music, Movies, and Books

Creo que no tengo un tipo de música favorita siempre, todo depende de mi estado de ánimo. Entre mis películas favoritas están Troya, Corazón Valiente, el patriota y Renacido. Mi libro favorito: Nacidos para correr de Christopher McDougall

Teach, Learn, Share

Puedo enseñar y compartir algo de las actividades que practico (aclaro que no soy experta pero lo poco que sé lo puedo compartir :) ), me encantaría compartir mi país, sus costumbres, su gente, sus tradiciones, su comida (puedo enseñar a preparar antojitos jarochos).
Me gustaría aprender idiomas, su gente, la cultura, tradiciones, comida y costumbres de otros paises.
