About Me

Greetings, traveler souls! I'm Sergio, an eternal dreamer and a whimsical wanderer on a quest to find beauty in the ordinary and magic in the everyday.

As an avid traveler and passionate adventurer, I've developed an insatiable wanderlust that fuels my soul. From enchanting landscapes to bustling city streets, I live to immerse myself in diverse cultures, forging connections with people from all walks of life. 🌍❤️

*BEWARE* Countryside guy - I’m not a big fan of big, noise, polluted, crowded, busy and touristic city. I do like Medellin (I have some work projects there) but I prefiere my region. Welcome to Antioquia’s east, the most beautiful region in Antioquia. You might search on internet about it, you’ll love it, and is really close to Medellin.

A bit about me:
I am a friendly, resourceful, honest, open minded, and adventurous person. *Current mission* share, share, share... that’s why I’m leading some education process in my region.
What I like the most of my job, is that I feel immerse in the construction of a new world, l always come home having learned much more than I expected.

*Current situation*

My sanctuary is a place where dreams take flight, where reality merges with fantasy, and where the extraordinary awaits in every corner.

I can host you, I have a little refuge at the country side of my twon (El Santuario). If you want to disconnect from the world, this is the place for you. If you're looking to party and have crazy nights, keep looking for other profiles. I live by myself, but usually family and friends come often.

My place is just 5 minutes far away from the town on the top of a mountain (beautiful sightseeing at the mornings and sunsets, you would love it). I can pick you up and drop off every day at twon if you want to travel to medellin or other towns close by, but not always, it depends of my agenda, but you can walk and do it by yourself, it’s really nice and you’ll see the most beautiful sights.

If I have time I can hangout with you, whenever I’m free, we can figure out something and I can drive you and show you some beautiful and traditional towns close by (El peñol, Guatape, Marinilla, El Carmen, La Ceja, etc, depends of my agenda).

I can offer you nice and comfortable bed, bathroom and food, you can use everything you see.

But first let’s be clear. I live a bit far from Medellín so I don’t host you if you are looking just for one or two nights at the city, because it would be a bit expensive for you the bus tickets, and the time you’ll get to get to my place and then back to the city. The better option for one night request would be a hostel or another host at the city. Said that, I’d prefer guest who first discover and have fun at the city by their own (with other host or hostels) and then have some extra time to live a local experience.

However, beyond the physical space, my greatest pleasure lies in being a cultural connector. Let's share meals that tantalize our taste buds with flavors from around the world, engage in lively conversations that bridge language barriers, and embark on off-the-beaten-path escapades that uncover the hidden treasures of our community.

BEWARE: I don't have Wifi at my place, nether cable or washing machine. Keep in mind you’ll do some Hand-wash laundry if you wanna wash your cloths, and for sure you’ll need data on your phone, that way we can keep in touch.

So, please don't request unless you've read and completely understood all I'm saying here.
