First, I'm not hosting for now but as I decided to take some time off work, I am available to hangout. I love the true spirit of Couchsurfing, the cultural exchange and meeting people from all around.

I'm an outgoing person, talk A LOT and I try to be there to help anyone around me. Also, I try to show the city through my eyes, not only the touristic part but what makes me love it.

A little about my backgroung, I've studied abroad twice: 6 months in Copenhagen, Denmark for an international exchange at Copenhagen Business School in Fall 2015, and a month in Milkkeli, Finland for a Summer Program at Aalto Univery School of Business in July 2017. In my university years, I was also a volunteer at the International Studies Office. These helped me be more open and practice my English.

Growing up, my parents always hosted family friends at our house, so I kind of grew up with the Couchsurfing spirit. When I got my apartment, it was a no brainer for my dad and I to host on the platform. This leads me to explaining he sadly passed away in September 2022 unexpectedly.

If you need any help, write me a message and I will glady help out. But please, don't use this as a dating app.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet people from around the world as I travel, and also save some money to keep on traveling and a secure place to stay. I also like to help people that come to my city and show them my point of view on living in Lima. The exchange of cultures is my main goal.

Interests

I love music, nature, culture (dances, architecture, food, traditions, etc.). I went to Denmark to live in a completely different place, get out of my comfort zone and experience another lifestyle and education. Due to my time volunteering at the International Office of my university I got used to living a life in 3 languages at the same time. I like to learn about different lifestyles, cultural differences and practice other languages.

Music, Movies, and Books

Mostly books in spanish like Sergio Bambarén (La Playa de los Sueños), Carlos Ruiz Zafón (La Sombra del Viento) and books I've found a long the way that attract me.
Favorite movies are comedies and action. Favorite one of all times: Shrek. I hate horror movies, I get scared too easily.
I love music! Headphones on and I'm completely disconected from the world. It reflects your mood and describes feelings better.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think the best thing I've done was studying in a completely different country: Denmark. Living with roommates and not having my dad a message away to help me all day (7 hours difference) made me grow and become more independent.
Travelling during that time made me discover myself, achieve my dreams and experience what was missing in me.
Later in 2017, I loved the experience in Mikkeli waking up with the forest outside my window, grilling sausages with my roommie (met her on Couchsurfing), picnic at Pankalampi (the local lake), etc.

Teach, Learn, Share

I cook quite well and I could teach my knowledge on Peruvian food. Also, I'm interested in dishes and ingredients from all over the world. I've been obssesed with merkén (smoked flaked spicy pepper from Chile), rugbrød (Danish black bread), puolukka (small red currants from Finland), red tea from Russia, organic chocolate with passion fruit from Ecuador, Italian style pesto, tapas (Spain), currywurst (Berlin), pasteis de nata (Portugal) etc. Yes, I love food.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As a host I promise I hope I can show you around the city with a different perspective. I love wine and a good beer, usually have some of those at home. And of course, my friendship forever.
P.S. Take in count I work Monday through Friday from 8am to 5:30pm.
