Hi everyone! My name is Yaris. I was born and raised in Venezuela and have lived in several places afterwards including China, USA, the Philippines, Timor - Leste and Kenya.

I recently started doing indoor rock climbing and I'm enjoying it! I'm passionate about making a difference, education, the outdoors, people, stories, communities, healthy living... and food!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

The best way to learn and appreciate a new place is by staying and seeing the world from the eyes of a local. Couchsurfing allows me to do that and it's the best way to meet individuals who can teach me a different perspective of life

I can provide you my perspective as solo female Asian traveler. I can practice Spanish and Chinese and share my favorite food dishes.
