About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to live different experiences in life

ABOUT ME

As soon as I graduated from University in Colombia, I lived in Brighton (UK) for a year. Then, I returned and started to work in Colombia. In 2009, I decided to go back to Europe and I did a Masters Degree in France. After 4 years in France, now I am living in London. It is an amazing city.

I love traveling and I always spend my savings on traveling. I have been to more than 40 countries in 4 continents (Oceania is missing but I will go soon).

I like to get to know different cultures but I think the best way to do it is through the people. The best part of life is to have a lot of stories or experiences to tell, and it is wonderful when you can share it wit people from different countries and cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

You gain knowledge according to your interaction and participation in the world. I think a way to succeed in the world is through your network. If people have many friends, experiences, references, etc; things will come up easier.

In addition, the positive attitude is something extremely important in life.

Three important things:

- We need to help people in any way
- We need to be an ACTIVE member in this world
- No time to complain. Always POSITIVE

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Amazing experiences with people in Strasbourg, Tallinn, Riga, Krakow, Moscow and St. Petersburg... I have been extremely well received by my guests... It is wonderful to know that there are great people out there that want to know you and specially that share the meaning of TRUST.

I have also received some people in France. They had a lovely time with me and my roommates.

Interests

First and most important: Traveling. but no the typical traveling, I do get to know the country and the city through people.

I also do sports: Paragliding, Squash, Football (of course)... and I enjoy watching all type of sports.

I love challenges, getting to know things and living new experiences.
