hi :) Although I'm not from Colombia I grew up there, but this doesn't mean that I can consider Colombia my home... maybe that's the reason why, after living almost 4 years in Berlin, now I feel I need to change again and start somewhere else... this time in Valencia were my grandparents were from. 2017 will show me if this is a good place to settle roots, at least for some time.
I'm a Visual artist, illustrator, animator in training and tattoo apprentice.
I used to do video installation and film projects but I'm still open to collaborate in other audiovisual projects.
Lately I‘ve been working as a graphic designer with a passion for illustration and character design.
As I mentioned before I was living in Berlin but after 3 cold winter I've decided I will move to Spain with my 5 year old child (León) in February and try to make a living there... I've been tattooing for almost a year and I like to use tattoo as an exchange tool that helps me to connect with other people.

here you can have a quick look of my tattoo works and illustration projects.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to connect with people from different countries and be able to host people (as soon as I have a new home), know different cultures and find different ways of living trough the endless possibilities of travel. Nowadays I can't feel confortable with having an 8 hour job at some office or just staying always at the same place... I would like to learn about sustainable agriculture and make it part of my life projects.
