Overview
About Me
Although I have a strong engineering background my heart belongs to tourism, hospitality services and philanthropy. I have had the privilege to travel around the world, start my own companies and seen many realities (the good, the bad and the ugly) of this world we live in. Up until now I run two Bed and Breakfast with my couple called Casa Agrreste (https://www.airbnb.com/h/casaagrreste) and Finca Agrreste. I am in the transition to start an autosufficient farm in the same place. On 2018 my husband and I opened the first naturist/nudist hotel in Colombia.
Aunque mi vida académica estuvo enfocada a la ingeniería mi corazón y pasión pertenece al turismo, hospitalidad y filantropía. He tenido el privilegio de viajar alrededor del mundo, iniciar mis propias empresas y ver varias realidades (lo bueno, lo malo y lo feo). Actualmente estoy en mi segundo y tercer emprendimiento sucediendo al mismo tiempo, dos Bed and Breakfast llamado Casa Agrreste (https://www.airbnb.com/h/casaagrreste) y Finca Agrreste los cual manejo con mi pareja donde también hospedo viajeros de todo el mundo, recibo voluntarios, abro las puertas de mi casa para los Couchsurfers y actualmente estoy trabajando en crear una finca autosuficiente. En el 2018 mi esposo y yo abrimos el primer hotel naturista/nudista de Colombia.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am all about collaborative economies, thinking outside the box and getting out of the confort zone...what better way to do it than here!
Me encantan las economias colaborativas, pensar fuera del molde y salirme de mi zona de confort....que mejor lugar para esta que acá!
Interests
I enjoy meeting and interacting with people in their environment, in their houses, in their job. I love hearing their stories, their points of view, their favorite spots and talking about their favorite topics of conversations. Again, if I can make your life easier in any way I do it with great pleasure.

Music, Movies, and Books
I have a special taste for music with African roots: Jazz, Bossa Nova, Funk, Rap, Hip Hop, Blues, etc.
Moviewise I can´t name a specific genre that I don´t watch.
I try to read as much as I can, specially novels.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I did a small charity dinner for a small girl that needed some really expensive medicine. I convinced one of the Colombia´s best chef to help us with the menu and we did dinner at my home, raised over USD $ 900.
Teach, Learn, Share
I try to learn as much possible from people and from my CS Experiences. I am ready to teach you the things that I know in entrepreneurship , finance, technology, tourism, booking engines, traveling, Colombia, languages...
I like to share meals as I love cooking and think it is one of the most sincere gratitute actions with my hosts.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Pretty much everything.
