My name is YESSI but it doesn´t stand for Yessica.

Normally I get asked questions like:
- “Can you repeat that?”
- “What does that mean?”
- “Wait, is that in a different language?

Other than the weird looks I get when I tell people my name, I get a wide variety of mispronunciations of my name. Some call me "iesi", "Yess", "Yessica", "Jessica", but It´s okay, i like new names :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, share my culture and experiences, help travellers.

Interests

Music, Salsa!

For me dance is a medium of expression and is beautiful if you just feel it, without looking for an approval or a validation from someone.

"Dance like no one is watching".

When you do that, compliments flow naturally towards you even without you realising. You don't dance for someone else to see, you do it for yourself, for your own soul 😊.

Infact, personally, I also used to feel that I'm not a good dancer, though I love dancing.
