Overview
About Me
I'm passionate about life, getting to know different cultures and engaging deep conversations with new people. I love to travel.
Im from Costa Rica but I'm currently living in Indonesia because I am working in an NGO called IHF. I'm getting to grow and learn unimaginable things by living in such a different culture from my own.
I love to try new food and I'm also a pretty good cook myself. I like to be outdoors and enjoy the nature (something I'm lacking quite a bit here in Jakarta). I love yoga and meditation (though I'm not a pro or anything). I enjoy going out and party till 3:00 am just as much as I enjoy having a cup of tea while reading a good book.
Overall, I'm just a 24 year old girl trying to make her way in life and looking for ways to make this world a better place.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
As I mentioned before I just love to meet new people. Im currently living in a country that has completely diferente culture, religion, habits, food, language, behaviour, beliefs from my own and the amount of growth that I've experienced here just out of trying to blend into the culture is amazing. Couchsurfing is a way to really get to know new people and new cultures as you travel around. Also the experience of traveling and being guided by locals appeal me a lot more that being a simple outsider tourist.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
We can discuss this later 😜
Teach, Learn, Share
I can cook and teach how to cook some Costa Rican food. I can also share a few of my ideologies about empowerment and self confidence that I've been sharing quite a bit here in the organisation I'm working for. Im in the early stages of yoga so if you are a rookie like me I can teach quite a few things, if not it can be the other way round ✨
What I Can Share with Hosts
Beliefs, lifestyles, different cultures, life lessons, experiences, food, laughs, smiles and maybe even a long lasting friendship. Never know if you'll be travelling to Costa Rica someday right ?
