I am a journalist from Colombia. I cover culture, human rights, migration and LGBTQ rights (which I love talking about). I will be doing a fellowship at Taz between May and June and it will be my first time in Berlin.

I have not used couchsurfing a lot, but I want to become a couchsurfer. I consider that the premise behind this app: to simply be generous and sharing your space with travelers, is just beautiful. I have had the privilege of making friends from all around the world and it truly makes you a better human being. I love to just visit cities with no maps and allow myself to be surprised:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m visiting Germany for the first time, to do a two-months fellowship at a local newspaper.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I crossed the border between Haiti and the Dominican Republic

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you basics of how to dance salsa, bachata, merengue, regueton and Latin music in general.

I’m a journalist specialized in human rights an international politics, so I am happy to discuss the international agenda.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I consider myself a very good cook, so I would be more than happy to serve you with Colombian and some Italian dishes. I am a pretty chill easygoing person. I like to train, so I can also be good gym pal. I am very tidy and organized and obviously I am more than willing to take my part on the house shores.
