I am an "amphibious writer/artist", I like to move between different habitats both in art and in life. I am interested in cultural activities: from art exhibitions, cultural fairs, performances, visits to bookstores, independent cultural fairs, to dance spaces (I love dancing). I'm quiet and independent, I like people but I also enjoy spaces of solitude and silence (in fact, I need quiet and silence). I also enjoy the contact with nature, I like to meditate. I try to eat healthy: I love vegetables (I am not vegetarian but I love vegetarian food).
I have been a university professor for almost 20 years accompanying writing and research-creation processes for artists (visual artists, scenic artists, make-up artists, photographers, writers).
I love reading, especially women authors. I love experimental writing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I have decided to move towards a more nomadic and adventurous life, and what I appreciate most about traveling is the contact with people (connecting!).
Estoy en Couchsurfing porque he decidido moverme hacia una vida más nómada y aventurera. y lo que más aprecio de viajar es el contacto con las personas (conectar!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Paraglading.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my knowledge of art and literature, very focused on experimental fields; I make literary (and art) recommendations according to the tastes of each person. I also accompany creative processes to find one's own voice in writing. I guide writing and reading practices from the body.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook something for them, share my knowledge of art and literature or about my country (Colombia), I am not a salsa teacher but I love to dance salsa and I could try to give some basic notions. También podríamos ir a bailar (si saben y les gusta) We could also go dancing (if they know and like it).
