About Me

Im a colombian exchange student living in Lyon for 6!months basically discovering the perks of freedom. I speak Spanish, English and French (this last one I’m still working on hehe, voilà pourquoi j’habite en France). I’m quite calm, not really the partying type although I won’t say no to a drink (and buying you one). I’m a bookworm, coffee and Netflix addict.

Also, I’m new in CS, which is why you won’t find any references... sorry for that. I’m living in a “colocation” (with roomates from 8 different countries) in Lyon and my contract doesn’t allow me to let people stay over... so no references of me as a host either... once I get back to my country though, that will change.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I heard about the app and I just want to travel as much as I can while I’m doing my exchange program and getting to know people that will hopefully speak in French (being an international student who doesn’t like to party is hard y’all).

I love to travel and just visit new places and learn new things, mostly history of places themselves.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: mostly alternative rock or pop (The Script, Daughtry, Maroon 5, Ed Sheeran, Michael Jackson) but really anything with comprehensible lyrics will do (just not reggaeton, not ever).

I like jazz background music, I dont know much about it but love how it sounds.

I’m a music box / Rockola for all I know.

Movies: as long as it’s not horror, it will do. Superhero movies are my all time favorites. Sorry not sorry.

Books: I’m the thriller-novel kind of person, my favorite genres go from fantasy (Game of Thrones, Eragon, LoTR) all the way to mystery, dystopic thrillers... you name it

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This is my first time ever living away from my family , I just grabbed my bags and landed on France.

I’ve skied 3 times (for someone who comes from the tropic, that is quite the adventure). I’m still on the basics but I absolutely love it.

Teach, Learn, Share

Language exchange might be a good thing to do(?) my French is still a bit rusty but if you’re up for English or Spanish sessions then so am I

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m clean and respectful of everyone’s personal space. I’d love sharing a meal (although I don’t consider myself a master chef... I guess I just know the basics).

Countries I’ve Visited

Chile, France, Mexico, Spain, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

Colombia, France, United States
