Hi everyone. I'm Venezuelan. Currently in a 6-months stay in Madrid, Spain, but I've been living in Santiago of Chile for almost 4 years because I'm doing my PhD there.

I was born in Caracas (my hometown), but I also lived for 7 years in Colombia when I was little, so I'm half Colombian too. I'm a Mechanical Engineer from Simón Bolívar University in Venezuela, and I'm doing a PhD in solar energy in Chile in Pontificia Universidad Católica of Chile.

I consider myself a very friendly person. I really love traveling and meeting new cultures and people. Due to my studies, I've had the opportunity of visiting many countries and I hope to continue doing that. I also enjoy nature and visiting places that take your breath away. I love being in Europe because every street is like an open museum. Every time I visit a new city I like to take walking tours to know the history and curiosities around a city, and meeting local people if it's possible.

Things that may define me? Autumn is my favorite season of the year, beach is my favorite place, travel photography is one of my favorite things to do, and I'm a chocolate and flower lover.

My hobbies are going out to have drinks with friends. I can't deny a beer in any case, I love craft beers and a good glass of wine and dancing. I'm latin-american and I love dancing salsa, merengue, bachata, etc, but I like every kind of music too. So, I'm very diverse, depending on the occasion and the people of course!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Basically to meet new people from other countries and cultures!
