About Me

Grew up in Colombia, went to a bilingual American school in my hometown and ever since I've been interested in other cultures and languages. Had 3 years of private classes of French and 2 years of German, did a 1 year exchange while still in school in Germany and got to know all of Europe. Currently studying at the Nacional University of Colombia but always on the lookout for a new adventure.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While I was an exchange student in Germany I traveled with another Colombian friend who happened to have a couchsurfing account and while traveling we staid at people's homes and I had nothing but good experiences and met some awesome people. I am currently in the US and would love to experience that again.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a very open and love just about anything, but I do have a special fixation on latin music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learning languages, it has opened my eyes and I now see the world as something that can be traveled and everything seems closer and much more friendly.

Teach, Learn, Share

Cooking, you'll learn how to prepare Colombian and Lebanese dishes (both my great-grandfathers were from Lebanon), quick Salsa, Merengue and Champeta lessons, some basic Spanish words for i you're stranded.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Amazing experiences from around he world and the warmth and affection of a Latino
