I come from the belly button of the world (Ecuador) I'm a very calm person who thinks that respect, humbleness and humor are essentials to keep harmony. I have an enormous appreciation for nature, music and art. I find them to be very intertwined.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to connect with people and hear many stories. The search for new experiences and adventures is what keeps me going and learning. Life is the best school and teacher, every situation or individual can teach you something.

Interests

A huge appreciation of life and its details

I enjoy music so much. I play several instruments but the one that I connect the most with is the guitar. I'm very interested in sounds and I always trying to appreciate them as they are without judgement, for real music is something that comes straight from the soul and is a gift from each individual.

I enjoy reading, cooking, spending time in nature and learning

Creativity and a good laugh keep the heart healthy

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spend time in the Amazon with indigenous people learning from their culture and costumes. I did the same thing with Native American tribes from Arizona
