Friendly disclaimer 😄 Couchsurfing is not Tinder for me. I’m here for cultural exchange, travel and meeting cool people — not dating or hookups 🙌 Hey! I’m Juan Camilo, a Colombian currently living in Chile, and right now… following one of those dreams that quietly stay with you for years until one day you decide to just go for it — traveling around Europe 🌍 I’m someone who genuinely enjoys deep conversations, simple moments, and meaningful connections. I like to understand people, their stories, what moves them. I believe that every encounter has something to teach you, and that the best parts of traveling are not the places, but the people you share them with. By day, I work in tech, but beyond that… I’m in a constant personal journey of growth, learning, and becoming. I’m currently writing a book inspired by my own experiences, reflections, and everything life has been teaching me lately. I love being active and connected to nature: - Trekking and mountains - Bouldering and pushing my limits physically and mentally - Long walks with no rush, just observing life I also enjoy the quieter side of life: - Good coffee and long conversations - Reading (and sometimes getting lost in thoughts after just one paragraph) - Moments of introspection, meditation, and simply being present I’m not here for just parties or quick connections — I truly value authenticity, respect, and shared human moments. If we cross paths, you can expect someone easygoing, respectful, curious, and genuinely interested in connecting. Maybe we’ll share a coffee, a walk, or just a good conversation…

The last time I followed my heart instead of my head was...
I once moved to Chile for love and casually threw away a scholarship in Germany… Plot twist: the scholarship would have lasted longer than the relationship. 😂
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I love meeting people and listening to their stories. Whether I’m traveling or hosting, I enjoy sharing experiences, exchanging cultures, and learning how different people see the world. Some of the best conversations happen between strangers who are curious about each other’s lives.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I recently climbed a 5000+ meter volcano, which was insane and beautiful at the same time
