Overview
About Me
Hi! My name is Carmen, and I'm a 22-year-old creative lady living in Chicago. I love baking, writing, ceramics and animals. Creating human connections and genuine experiences with unique people is one of my favorite pastimes. You can find me near any art studio, bakery, body of water, or simply walking around adventuring.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm here to look for places to stay with my good friend, Thiago! We are doing a Europe and Africa adventure together and would love to connect with other like minded people around the world.
Interests
I've been baking and doing ceramics for a couple years now, and I can confidently say those are my biggest passions. My upcoming trip shall be an opportunity to explore new places and cultures while secretly scoping out each location's natural clay deposits.

Music, Movies, and Books
R&B and jazz are my current favorite genres of music. Smut and nonfiction for books. And for movies, pretty much anything with an intriguing plot.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most beautiful experience of my life was a summer during university in Duluth, MN, USA. I was swimming in Lake Superior with my friend when I saw a double rainbow grow from inception and it was incredibly vivid. It was gently drizzling too, and I swear it looked like little diamond raindrops dancing on the surface of the water. I also met a little black Chihuahua named Beans who came right into my lap and we became best friends. One of the best days of my life.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teaching about language, pottery and the perfect croissant is pretty much all I can offer. I'd love to learn the ways different people around the globe create art. Maybe there's some art forms I've never heard of before too which would be really fascinating. And most of all, sharing compassion with my fellow humans is of utmost importance.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can offer a language exchange and lots of love and good cooking (I used to be a chef). I speak English as a native, and I speak Spanish and Portuguese as well.
