Hello!
My name is Mayo, a peruvian currently living in Germany's Capital. I think of myself as open-minded, cheerful, flexible, adaptable and curious about random info about other cultures. I usually get along pretty well with my hosts and guests. I enjoy strolling around new places and impregnate myself from the atmosphere of my surroundings.

I enjoy running , reading, biking and seeing people live their lives.. and if you are lucky enough you may run into situations that will surprise /amaze or make you laugh! I also enjoy reading a nice book and drinking coffee in the mornings.

I believe that through the local people you get a real view on the real country's lifestyle and that is just priceless.

Most of the references in my profile are from Lima (Peru) where I hosted countless travelers and thanks to them I was able to rediscover my country through different perspectives. I find it encouraging to know that there are funny/ interesting/kind people out there waiting to be met.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've hosted a lot of people , not only couchsurfers but also friends from friends.

This video sums it up pretty well:

Interests

I enjoy running a lot, I usually run three times a week. It feels great to kick off your day with a good run. I also enjoy going to the movies, hearing podcasts, going to museums and having cappucino while reading a book.
