About Me

Hi! I’m Erik, a 24-year-old social worker and master’s student from Bogotá, Colombia. I’m a naturally curious, respectful, and sensitive person who loves connecting with people, listening to their stories, and sharing experiences.

I’m someone who enjoys deep conversations, helping others find their way, and creating spaces where people feel heard and understood. I genuinely love sharing — whether it’s a cup of coffee, a homemade meal, or simply a moment of reflection.

I’m passionate about discovering the world through culture, language, and human connection. I enjoy cooking, photography, hiking, and attending art events, museums, theater shows, and anything cultural that touches the soul. I also love technology and all things a bit geeky.

One fun fact: I have a twin brother — so if you think you’ve seen me twice in one day, you probably have!

Also: I’m currently pursuing my Master’s degree, so I’m always looking for cultural plans, new knowledge, and immersive experiences that help me grow both personally and professionally.

Coffee is my ritual — I wish be a barista hahah and I love experimenting with brewing methods. To me, coffee is a moment of connection, a reason to pause, talk, and enjoy the little things.

I speak Spanish, English, and I’m learning Portuguese — and I’d love to practice with you or help you with yours!

Whether it’s exploring a hidden gem in your city, cooking together, or just sharing a playlist, I’m always open to the experience. I’m not just here to travel — I’m here to connect.
