I'm a very cheerful, respectful and friendly person (well, I'm also VERY chatty) . I LOVE meeting people from different cultures and most of all I love talking to people and seeing the world through their eyes (their ideas and experiences) I'm a translator, my native language is Spanish and I got a BA in English. My biggest dream in life is to travel the world and live in different countries. I don't host people b/c my house is not big enough but I like to hang out with people that come to my country to experience everything they want. I have only been out of Costa Rica once and that experience was so amazing that know I yearn for traveling even more than I used to.
Interested in Adventure Sports
Interested in Reading
Fluent in English
Learning French
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Although staying in a Hotel can be fancy and comfortable I don’t look for that. I believe that the only way to experience a new country is through the eyes of its people and that is way I’m on Couchsurfing, so I can stay with people and be able to live the culture of the country in the best way possible.
Music, Movies, and Books
Favorite music: EDM Books: The Chronicles of Narnia Instead of listing the movies I like I tell you what gender I DON’T LIKE: Horror movies
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Ok so I haven’t done many things in my life but here is a list of a few: - Getting my BA degree - Having a job I love - Meeting people from different countries - Run a 5k race - Traveled to Mexico and: - Jumped into a Cenote - Seeing Xichen Itza - Swam in Tulum - Done some sports - Swam in a cave (which was really REALLY scary to me) - Met my country - Traveled to Nicarague - Took my mom to Guatemala for a whole week. I'll never forget how happy she was in a foreign country for the 1st time.
