CURRENT MISSION

Explore the world, meeting new people, learning as much as I can!

ABOUT ME

Hola! I'm Claudia, I'm peruvian and I love to dance musica latina. My friends describe me as positive, energetic, openmind, outgoing and very friendly. I had the opportunity to travel a lot last year when I was living in Spain. My experience since then with CS couldn't have been any better. I met wonderful people from different countries while I was able to learn from their cultural views. I recommend CS to everyone who is willing to share and learn their culture with other people. The world can be a better place if we all go in the same direction.

So if you are in Lima or need advice on what to do in my beautiful country, don't hesitate to contact me. I've travelled all over Peru and I know what it has to offer. I'm looking forward to meet more people along the way.

PHILOSOPHY

'Be happy for this moment, this moment is your life...you only live once, but if you live it right, once is good enough...'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met wonderful hosts in Amsterdam and Berlin who even show me around so they are more than welcome to come to Peru to visit anytime. I hosted CS friends in my apartment in Madrid as well and met several people for interesting chats in random bars and cafes, what a better place to meet nice people than CS.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Feeling the energy that Machu Picchu offers at its highest peak.
Cycling through icy hail at 2°C in Amsterdam.
Staring the most beautiful sunset at Burano island near Venezia.
Meditation in the middle of the desert of Zagora, Africa after a camel trekking. I LOVE Morocco!
Experienced a dune buggy out across the dunes in Paracas to tear as a roller coaster and at the top of a large dune we let go sandboarding. A lot of fun!
An exciting white water river rafting experience in Lunahuana, Peru.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know about latin culture of course! Did I mention salsa or merengue is what really motivates me? Also living in Peru and traveling all over my country made me realize that I can teach you about one of the wonders of the world..Machu Picchu, the ancient culture of the Incas, a beauty that has to be visited. I also want to learn from different cultures, it's been a great experience to travel and explore so many places so far. Who isn't a traveler addicted, right?
