Hi I’m Alex,

A half Colombian, half Moroccan. Born and bread Londoner. I’m super chilled, open-minded, and caring. Massive foodie, culture vulture and globe trotter.

I’ve grown up with people around the house from all over the world since I was a little girl, so CS has always appealed to me. I didn’t try it out until a few years ago when I went backpacking solo through India and wanted to get immersed in the culture and people (my favourite style of travelling).

Since then, I’ve not really had the chance of much travelling due to leaving the corporate rat race to set up my own business five years ago and then the c-word. But now the world has opened back up, I’m itching to get back out there and craving connection and culture like never before.

I’ll be moving to Colombia at the end of the year to reconnect with my ancestry and motherland. Happy to host hopefully when I’m on that side of the world :)

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

To connect, to learn about cultures, to have memorable and enriching experiences
