Overview
About Me
Specialty coffee enthusiastic exploring the world and supporting farmers and roasters in their growth. I've been volunteer for 15 years (and counting) and that provided me the opportunity to meet people around the world and follow my passion towards life and supporting others. After living abroad for 5 years, I continue exploring and developing passions towards sports, nature and creativity. In my free time, I use to practice swimming, boxing, hiking, as well as enjoying time travelling while reading a new book.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
With the willingness to expand my horizon and learning new cultures. Being volunteer, I hosted people from Brazil, Germany, United States, India and Ukraine and have been hosted by people from Colombia, Mexico and Spain.
Currently learning german!

Music, Movies, and Books
My playlist is so far random, including salsa, classical, rock and pop. Friends use to say that I'm a walking-karaoke but I do it if the other person actually is and feel comfortable.
Movies: Inside out, Oppenheimer, lately.
Books: The first I read in 3 days was 'Cien anios de soledad'. My favorites are 'The Last Girl' from Nadia Murad and 'The Librarian of Auschwitz'. Currently reading Barack Obama and some books I found about Holocaust. Always open to read about midfulness, marketing, social trends and a romantic one from to time.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Climbed the Baru Volcano in Panama. Preparing my heart for more volcanos!
Started solo-trip after some weeks arriving to a new home-town.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: Everything regarding coffee, design, entrepreneurship and Latin America.
Learn: Cultures, cities, people, new perspectives.
Share: I DO KNOW a bit of peruvian cuisine. Also I'm an open book about everything related to politics, history, music and culture.
What I Can Share with Hosts
