ABOUT ME
Hello Mates!:
I have been in Australia for 5 months and I love it. Im doing an exchange program in La Trobe University located in Melbourne. The subjects that Im study are about social interventions, community psychology and cultural inquires: Im interested in this subjects because in the future I want to work in social work in different cultures and communities. Coming to Australia has been of the best experience in my life because its culture, people, places to travel, ethnicity and education is awesome!. Im a mindfull and friendly person that enjoys to meet new people and Im always looking to have a good time. I make jokes often (not all of the are funny ":-)"), like to dance, have a good conversation, I cook good mexican food, and I love to have new experiences.
PHILOSOPHY
My philosophy of life is complex to defined. I just believe in making the most in every experience. I like to be active and enjoy everything that I have done. I believe that is better to wet out of our confront zone and give a shoot to all the opportunities and feelings that you can have in life.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I decided to participate when I came to Melbourne. The reason of this is because I didn't have a place to stay at the begining and I didn't know anyone in Australia. So I decided to do a type of "couch surfing".
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My first experience in doing "couch surfing" was by facebook. This happened because I was coming to Australia and I didn´t know anyone. I contact a girl from Finland and I stay in here place until I found a house to live in. Nowadays we are really good friends :-).
