About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel as much as I can while Im young. Meet people from different cultures and countries!

ABOUT ME

Im a 24 year old student, born in Colombia and currently enjoying my time in France and the opportunity of studiying and traveling abroad. Im open minded, outgoing. I love meeting new people, but I also respect other's personal space.
I try to take out the best of the places and the people I get to meet, and I try to seek and truly enjoy the situations/opportunities where this is possible.
Its actually harder to describe myself than I thought, and its taking me too long to think what exactly to put here...So Ill just pass to the next questions, which will give you a better idea of who I am.

PHILOSOPHY

Im a current student of philosophy, so if you´re really interested in this question I can send you a copy of my 40 pg. thesis (no, Im kidding) I guess my philosophy in life is to take advantage of the opportunities that life offers me, and to respect other's points of views and ways of living. I have my way of living life but by no means I think is neither the ideal or the perfect one.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Because I live in a student residence, and I only have a small room where I cannot fit a couch or an extra bed, its difficult for me right now to receive people. But Im available to take a drink or a walk with the people that are visiting Paris, and Ill happily show you around. I also use CS to find places where I can stay and meet new people when Im traveling!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While travelling in Europe with a friend (an already member of CS) I stayed over in the apartment of a really nice girl in Barcelona and of another guy in Rome. They were young and very nice and I still keep in contact with them! It was because of that experience that I decided to sign up as a member of CS.
