Let me introduce my self, please watch this video ... bit.ly/OneYearOfExperiences

I'm traveling around the world (my dream is finally running ! =)

My given name is Wayra (It means "Wind") I am from Colombia/Peru - Latin America.

I'm not traveling for vacation or working. I want to travel for collect live experiences beyond the reality that my local society shows me as unique.

I'd like to share with nice local people to talk about "everything" (food, customs, traditions, stories and more).

My last 11 years I was working in an office in technology and consulting services in, Colombia, Ecuador, Perú and Mexico. Finally I decided make an stop in my workaholic life and live , and live it simple... !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

• Because I discovered that CS is one way travel and live outside of the standard and comercial tourism circuit, with the real chance to meet REAL PEOPLE, with a real human sharing experience. With CS, as much as host or traveler, I've had amazing beautiful surprises, meeting people that you can't not imaging that they exist.

• Because I can be on service of others, keeping the flow of receiving and giving. - Hosting and visiting -

• As a traveller: To give the people a bit of my culture and they a bit of theirs ...

• As a host: I like give a little hospitality to people who are living the adventure of traveling ...
