Ig @piecitos_de_kanguro

Hi. I'm stubborn and laugh to almost everything.
I step out of my comfort zone by traveling, connecting with strangers, and embracing the unknown.

I like plants, dirt, animals, and music. I enjoy hiking, all sports, swimming, and dancing (although I'm not much of a dancer, I do move my feet).
I love homemade food, ice cream, and obnoxious jokes.
I don’t do drugs, and I’m here thanks to a dear friend who shared Couchsurfing with me — and I’m happy she did.

2 phrases that resonate deeply with me are: “Whether we’re rich or poor, or somewhere in between, one thing we have in common is that we are all homeless… working our way home.”
"The journey is never-ending. There's always gonna be growth, improvement, adversity; you just gotta take it all in and do what's right, continue to grow, continue to live in the moment." — Antonio Brown.

I am detailed about my profile info because I tend to forget about my info, and I keep it to myself when talking in person. My friend Shio and I had a wonderful conversation due to our profile info, jaja, we were too shy to bring this kind of info up on our own, so reading it beforehand has been a good strategy to become friends!

🚫 Just to be clear: I’m not here for romantic encounters. Guys, please don’t put me in a position where I have to say you're crossing a line. Couchsurfing is not Tinder, and I do have a boyfriend. Thanks for respecting that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make friends, learn about people, discover new cultures, and explore countries in the most human and meaningful way.
I truly believe that, a stranger is just a friend you haven’t met yet.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m happy to help out with random things, teach English, share stories and experiences about my country, and share some geopolitical memes over coffee or dinner.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share stories from my country, help you learn English and Spanish, cook a meal together, or just enjoy whatever crazy adventure the day brings — from a simple grocery run to karaoke, forest hikes, volcano climbing, sea swimming, or nature photography, or do nothing.
