ABOUT ME

I am a constant inquirer of different takes on life and always willing to share mine. I'm well behaved and respectful, but can also be mildly politically incorrect, depending on what the situation calls for. Open minded, laid back and willing to take in every single bit of interesting information that I can gather. Son of a colombian father and a chilean mother..

PHILOSOPHY

Everyone should go after their wildest ambitions, even (specially) if this means defying society's pretensions along the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to do both, host and surf. People have kindly refered to me as a good host. If going to your house, I'm not really high maintenance, I'll just read your profile and figure out what to expect.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have a couple of friends who are regulars and were the ones who got me into the whole hosting idea.
I've also gone partying along with some surfers in different countries and had an amazing time.

My main passion is music but I also enjoy reading, cooking and talking about random topics.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think I can teach all about those things that make up my way of life. Spanish (language) and colombian culture are included. Or I might as well come up with a mash-up of random things, like Moe Szyslak's Funky Dancing for Self-Defense lessons from that Simpsons episode.
