I have always loved travel and now that I finished my studies that's all I want to do! I grew up in Bogota, Colombia (South America) and I moved to Florida, United States when I was 18 to do my Bachelors. I moved to London on September 2014 where I finished my Master and now I live in Rome. I love sports, being outdoors, I prefer cycling over walking, I LOVE dancing (a lot!!), I love eating and cooking,I like chocolate but only if it's dark, I don't like coffee (yes, I know, I'm a Colombian who doesn't like coffee), I love dogs, and a good movie when it's raining. Please ask me if you want to know more :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Now that I finished my studies I want to travel around the world visiting the friends I made at university and getting to know even more people willing to show me their culture. Since I started getting ready for my travels I have been reading a lot of traveling blogs and there has not been one blogger who doesn't emphasise how great couchsurfing is, so I want to experience it myself. I really want to get to know people all over the world in an uncommon way. I would love to maybe share a dinner with cuisine from my country along with a laugh and maybe an advise for a dreamer. I am open to try new food as well if you want to share some of your culture with me :)

Interests

Dancing, sports, cycling (for fun and transportation, I'm not really Lance Armstrong), cooking not so much baking, reading, writing, people watching, animals in general but dogs are my obsession, collecting little books from places I visit, collecting fun currencies, a newly-discover love for collecting fans (like Spanish or Japanese type of fans), some yoga here and there, meditating

Music, Movies, and Books

Mostly latin music or something that I can sing or dance to.
I'm in love with love, so I love good romantic comedies, Disney movies off course, I like documentaries of all sorts, dramas, and I HATE SCARY MOVIES WITH PASSION.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am really proud of my academic career as I love learning for personal development more than anything. I am also proud of have moved to multiple countries in my short life by myself.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have been a Zumba instructor for 5 years now, and I also founded the Salsa association in my Uni, so if you'd like to learn some latin moves I could be of use. I've also taught Spanish both in America and in the UK and English to Spanish-speakers in Colombia.
Additionally, I have worked in the fitness industry for about 4 years so I can give you a quick PT session if you'd like to have a workout!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Like I mentioned before, I love to cook and I would love to share a my cuisine with you if you are open to some new flavours with cilantro, maracuyá, and many other delicatessen from my culture. My fitness knowledge can come handy if you would like me to hook you up with a fun workout after all the food. And finally, I can share some latin moves if you are open to learn :)
