Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
travel and meet as many different people as I possibly can, drinking in all kinds of new and exciting knowledge!
ABOUT ME
Curious, love to laugh, friendly and open minded, like to learn about others, cultural exchanges, experience-seeking....what else??
I'm Latin, but live in Canada and I'm in France at the moment trying to acquire the language...I want to take advantage of the time while I'm here to see as much as I possibly can, and meet as many interesting people as I can cross paths with!
PHILOSOPHY
We have just enough religion to make us hate each other, but not enough to make us love.
I believe in the power of thought and of questioning, of the individual and of the self.
I respect everyone, as I expect to be respected by others as well- live by the Golden Rule.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am trying to get more involved by finding out about meetings, and now hopefully actually couch surfing on my next trip. Its hard when you're constantly moving around, but I'm looking forward to it!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I haven't had an experience yet, but being introduced to it was an eye-opener; this is the way I have always wanted to travel--- with other people who know all the cool things to do!
Interests
All sorts of things-
Mostly people. I love listening to different points of view, learning about different cultures, and talking to people who have had so many amazing experiences; even though they may think they haven't. In that aspect, I can be interested by almost anything, since it is the person't take on it that fascinates me.
I like walking around, seeing new and interesting sights, and europe captures me.

Music, Movies, and Books
I enjoy all sorts of movies- except for horror ones; somehow getting the sh*t scared out of me does not seem like an enjoyable time.
I love to read, and will read almost anything. So, I don't really have any favorite books; because I have read many, loved a lot, and disliked few.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I still haven't found a beach that compares to the untouched paradise of Los Roques (although I admit I might be a bit biased).
So far, I think the most amazing thing I've done is move halfway around the world for love- but that's just so far...
Teach, Learn, Share
I think everyone benefits differently from everyone... I like to talk about many different things- and share points of view on everything. I am a great fan of exposing the Venezuelan culture to the world, even go as far as cooking! I'm not sure yet what my "practical skills" are; but I'm sure in any interchange there's lots to be learned from either part.
