About Me

I'm from Medellin (Colombia) and I'm currently studying an MSc in Science & Technology Policy at the University of Sussex thanks to a Chevening scholarship. I studied Business Management and I'm interested in the use of technology and innovation to address society's social challenges. I like running, walking around parks, beaches and cities' streets.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm currently studying in the UK thanks to a Chevening scholarship. I want to explore exciting and diverse places around the UK but also know local people and learn from their culture and traditions. I want to make new friends in this country and let them know that they can count on me when they visit Colombia.

Interests

I like going to cinemas and theatres, I like exploring new cities, reading a good book, drink a good coffee and taste new beers.
