About Me

Hello everyone,
for a long time, I offered a space in my apartment to receive travelers when I lived in Ecuador. I stopped because I had to travel and after a few years in Spain, I ended up staying in Switzerland with my fiancé.
I hope to find more amazing people as I did back in Ecuador.
I love learning new things, new cultures and trying to learn new languages.
I love cats. Unfortunately, in my apartment, we cannot have pets.
I like to prepare new and invented dishes (most of them taste amazing, the rest taste really good! So far my fiancé loves them all)

IMPORTANT: I'm traveling around Switzerland and Spain, I can't host in Guayaquil anymore.
IMPORTANT 2: I use CS to know other travelers or locals, share experiences, make some friends and live the culture but NOTHING more. This is not tinder. Thanks a lot!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think experiencing intercultural exchange between our cultures is the best type of learning (than from a book, blog or a guided tour), it stays forever. Getting to know local people and their culture right at your door and being able to show our city through us it's amazing.
Also, I'd like to offer the same opportunities, facilities and amenities that I might need some day while Im traveling, having a friend, someone who wants to help you out, who says all the good as the bad stuff, specially the last part.. because a local knows all the tips so you can stay safe.

Interests

Mis 3 cosas favoritas son viajar, comer y dormir.
I like to eat! If you like to eat we'll be best friends forever! I can't handle spicy food [in Ecuador we are not used to eat that much] and I don't like sea food so much.. but the rest I'll try for sure!

I learned to play piano when I was little (nothing proffesional) but I'd like to keep learning, if you have the time to help me out it'd be great.
I would like to learn to play drums and violin. I would like to learn sign language so I can be inclusive and helpful in any situation.

I can share my place and my time. I have a car so we can make arrangement to go out.
If you know dishes of your country and want to share it I'll be amazing, I like to learn different things!
I like to cook so I will be offering a lot of food.

I can help you around the house, I dont know how to cook, but I know the basic stuff so I can help you out.
I like to learn. If you have something to share, I'm more than happy (also, be aware I ask too many questions when learning)
