I am a Colombian living in Mexico City since 2015. I studied civil engineering and I am currently studying a Master in Business Administration there. I arrived to Montreal for my summer internship and exchange period on June, and I will be living in Canada until December, 2019.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is a win-win for everyone. A nice platform to meet people from all around the world and have a real local experience!. I will be needing hosts often in Quebec since I will be travelling 2 or 3 days a week to this city for my exchange studies. Then, when I go back to Mexico to finish my master, I will be very glad to host my Quebec City hosts there!.

Interests

I love street art, outdoors sports (running, mountain bike, hiking) and animals!. I also enjoy eating in little markets and traditional places, discovering places through food.
