Hola I'm Ángela!

Born and raised in Cali, Colombia. Living in the beautiful city of Amsterdam for about 5 years ago.

I have a background in Physiotherapy and currently working as Ergonomist in a DutchTech company.
With a strong background in sports and a Crossfiter in action, I enjoy every activity related to human movement: dancing, outdoor activities, music, nature, traveling etc. I love photography and visual arts!!

As much as I enjoy doing sports I love beers and food (with my soul!!). I simply consider that you can get to know a culture through their cuisine, thus I enjoy tasting food from all over the world!! Next to all of this, I have a strong passion for human behavior and how we are built through everything we experienced in life.

CURRENT MISSION
Get to know more cultures, places, mindsets, global cuisines, and new experiences along with my best partner in crime: my dutch-latin soul husband.

PHILOSOPHY
Replace Sorry's with Thank You's!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started in Couchsurfing at the moment I moved to The Netherlands. Has been so far a nice community to meet people and get to know their stories, plus is the best way to know the local culture of the place you are heading on.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach some ''caleño salsa style'', is the way how we dance salsa in the city I grew up: Cali, Colombia.
I can give you tips of what to do in Amsterdam to mingle with the locals, share my life experience, practice or teaching you some spanish or dutch.
We are very open to learn about everything!
