About Me

Hello! I'm an extrovert person who likes making friends and going out. I also like my moments of solitude, for meditation and reflection.

I'm a Costa Rican, hence my addiction to coffee and my love for nature.

I'm moved by topics that affect the human condition and our stay in this world. I studied International Relations, Human Rights and International Journalism.

Travel makes me feel present. Is the thing that makes me fall in love with life the most. I also like drawing, painting and writing poems.

Exercise is a must in my life.

I love my family, and my four little dogs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea of meeting people from different parts of the world and getting to know their stories, simple as that.

Travel has been such an enriching experience in my life and I know how important it is to have a good experience when you are far from home, so if I can help someone achieve that, it would make me happy.

Even though I opened my profile in 2012 I've never been a host or a surfer, because soon after I got a scholarship to study abroad, and so have not been living in my house for a while now. So I'm a newbie, any tips are welcomed.

Interests

Traveling, writing, photography, art, culture.....

I like all kinds of people. I have friends from all ages and backgrounds. I think this is because I always try to see the interesting part of every person and feed myself from their stories and dreams.
