About Me

I am a cool and outgoing young, generally funny and with high moral values. I consider myself a smart person, very creative and who is open to learn new things and live new experiences everytime. I like to share my knowledges, talking about different topics, listening to people, sharing time, walking by the city, doing voluntary job and learning cultural things. I love animals, plants, ecology, design and disruptive things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well, some friends have talked to me about this site, then I decided to check it and here I am. I want to travel to many many places, know new people, create networks for working and having fun, so I think this platform can be useful for that.

Interests

I am interested in differents topics, mostly about academic and research but also about moments and great times. My favorite interests are: Agriculture, animal behaviour, gamification, industrial ecology, blue economy, biomimicry, cradle to cradle, upcycling, urban farming, organic food, sciences as physics and chemistry, psycologhy, history, design, innovation, technology, marketing, logistics and operations research, inventions and creations, fantastic books (such as Narnia and Harry Potter), cities development and urban management, entreprenuership, culture (food, music, dancing, etc) and of course, new experiences all the time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To sale Cheese Steaks at the street close to the University where I studied: after traveling to Philadelphia in 2010, my best friend and me decided to cook and sale Cheese Steaks with a colombian touch. It was a great adventure!

I try to do amazing things everyday, such as sing loud while I walk by the streets.
