About Me

Hello!
I am a caring and kind girl, I like to travel and I like to learn about life as a school, so I'm always down to try something new. I would like to improve my English , meet people and places where I can work part-time.
I lived in Italy for 8 years during my adolescence, I have visited wonderful places there and around Europe. Also in Colombia I have fallen in love with beautiful places.
I went to college and I graduated as audiovisual producer, I've worked in film and photography is my specialty.
Now I would like to visit the United States.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A friend of mine recommended me this site. She said it was reliable, that it is not a free hostel and it's not a dating website but which could meet nice people. I hope to find someone willing to host me and if need labor, I'm ready to work; I also look for part-time job. I would be very grateful for any information u / or assistance.
Usually I do not have an itinerary prepared , but I am open to improvise and make new and fun things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Laugh, cry, shouting, singing, to love, travel, start over...
Europe travel by car. Take photos.
Once when I thought I had lost everything, I felt so alone and I caught my bag, my guitar, few pesos (COP) in my pocket and I started traveling around the north coast of Colombia. I met beautiful people, I found work singing and as a waitress, and so I could keep traveling for a few months.

Teach, Learn, Share

I studied high school in Italy and film and television production in Colombia, I love photography, and in every experience I learn more. I never stop learning and knowledge sharing is a wonderful thing. So, I think I can teach about photography,
Italian, Spanish...
I would like to learn to speak English well, learn about gardening, to cook some typical food or other things...
I can share some stories, I can sing some songs or cook Italian spaghetti ! :)
