About Me

Born and raised in Ecuador, South America. I am an outgoing introvert, which sounds contradicting, but it means this: I prefer alone time but when I hang out, I am pretty outgoing.

I think traveling is essential to expand our worldview, to be compassionate and inclusive individuals. I am usually not able to take surfers out and show them around, but it makes me happy when I can at least contribute to the accessibility of traveling, so if I can provide you with a safe place during your adventures, I am happy!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When traveling across the world, I couchsurf to learn about people’s cultures. I think even just walking into a home with a different lifestyle broadens our world perspective. There are habits in my home that I’ve learned from other cultures, so I take a piece of the experience with me.

When I host, it’s mostly to make it accessible/affordable for those seeking adventure by providing them with a safe place to sleep, shower and cook. This is especially important for women, while I live with my boyfriend, this is a safe and comfortable place for girls!

Interests

I’m currently learning how to take photos and I’ve absolutely failed, I can’t even deal with the settings on my camera. Help!! Lol

Music, Movies, and Books

Documentaries on Netflix.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trying to see the beauty in the simple things in life every single day.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’ve been on a mission to learn French for a long time and have miserably failed. I am happy to help you with your Spanish anytime. I am also always looking to diversify my foods, so if you’re a cook/foodie, I’d love to learn about foods from your culture.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Home made dinner, laughs, Spanish conversational lessons and what you think you need from me! Tell me how I can be most helpful.
