ABOUT ME

Hi, my name is Juan Diego, I'm 24 and I come from Colombia. I'm currently living in Göttingen, Germany, undertaking studies in Neurosciences. I'm up for showing visitors around, hanging out, talking... I'm easy-going, open-minded, outdoorsy and energetic.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live // Be nice and life will be nice in return // If you want something properly done, you gotta do it yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed I while back and it was nice. More recently I stayed at a guy's in Frankfurt, got to know some cool people in Berlin and had a nice experience in Boston. VERY IMPORTANT: yes, having a free hostel is certainly nice, but to the extent possible, I like to share with people and get to make a connection. It's not a must, but it makes the experience far more pleasant.

Interests
