My name is actually Rachel, but since that's a weird name in Colombia everyone calls me Chelly instead. I'm a graphic designer, and I love every little piece of it :) Mos of all I like to work on letterings, motion graphics and crafts. I'm cheerful and calm... somehow I manage to be both hahaha. I like to dance, to sing (even though I probably shouldn't hahaha), and to play my ukulele.

P.S.: I laugh... A lot...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It just brings out the best of every trip. Visiting places and stuff is cool, it sure is. But that's not how you know a country's culture. Being with natives is how. Besides, local people know the tricks for everything in their country ;).
