About Me

Colombian girl living in Sweden for 26 years. I was in Colombia for 1 year (2023-2024) What an amazing experience! Anyway, I went back to Sweden & right now (October 2025) I’m on vacation in Colombia until the 15th of October, for that reason, Im not hosting right now

I am an anthropologist and I worked in the past with different projects with NGO’s. I work as a social worker in Sweden & I have always worked with people in vulnerable situations.

I love traveling & I travel a lot! I have those crazy, fun, latino-gens, mixed with the Swedish way of thinking. I’m open minded and I’m sure I gonna make you laugh a lot! 😁

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host people when I am not traveling, I usually host more than stay as a guest. I have also met couchsurfers from all over the world through groups I belong to in this comunity.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Lots of fun having lunch, picnics, parties, hanging out, staying with Couchsurfers in different countries and hosting wanderful people from CS.

Interests

I love having a fitness lifestyle, going to the gym many times a week, eating healthy...but I am a food lover too so I am always eating (all kind of food), I love to cook food from all over the world & I like to try new restaurants. I love to paint 🎨 , I like wine & all kind of conversations: From deeply ones to silly ones. I’m always planning a trip somewhere ✈️

I love electronic music & to go to different events with electronic music (Hard techno is my thing 😎).

I love to travel, to learn as much as possible from other cultures, to eat different things, explore new places, travel alone but also with family, friends and with completely strangers 🤣 It’s just lots of fun! I love to meet new people

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I loved to be in Laos, in the middle of no where, in the jungle, in a hut with a tribe. I was eating food wraped in banana leafs and drinking a very strong licour with chili with the chief of the tribe and his family.

I can teach you salsa, Spanish, Swedish, some tasty dishes and also how to shake your butt :-)
