Overview
About Me
Hi! I'm a cheerful, positive person who’s passionate about peaceful living, well-being, and enjoying the little moments in life. I absolutely love music—good music always brings good people together! I also enjoy great food, a nice glass of wine, and meaningful conversations.
I was born in Latin America and have had the chance to travel to 27 countries so far. Each trip has shaped my outlook on life and introduced me to wonderful people and cultures. I still have many places left on my bucket list, and if you invite me to your country, there’s a high chance I won’t say no! 😂
I currently work remotely and am open to new job opportunities that allow me to continue living freely while learning and growing along the way. I’m adaptable, organized, curious, and eager to keep expanding my horizons.
I'm on Couchsurfing to create real human connections, share experiences, and learn from others while also giving back however I can. Let’s connect, share stories, and enjoy the journey together!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing is a magical tool — it allows me to connect with people from all over the world and share meaningful experiences. Whether it’s preparing a simple meal at home, exchanging stories, learning about new cultures, or planning a great adventure together, this platform makes it all possible. I believe real human connection is one of the most beautiful things we can experience, and Couchsurfing gives us a chance to do exactly that, naturally and authentically.
Interests
I'm currently looking for a job or freelance opportunities, especially in administrative roles. I’m passionate about media — including TV, radio, entertainment, and event production. I love environments where there’s space for networking, creativity, and building projects together. If there's a chance to connect, collaborate, and grow — both personally and professionally — count me in!

Music, Movies, and Books
My relationship with reading hasn’t been the most consistent, but I truly want to improve that in this new chapter of my life. Still, I don’t blame myself—I've found other ways to learn, grow, and explore what books can offer.
Music, on the other hand, is a huge part of my life. I love listening to it, dancing to it, and why not… even trying to sing along 🤣. I may not be the best singer, but I enjoy it without shame! Music connects me to joy, to people, and to unforgettable moments. For me, a good song always brings good friends together.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One of the most incredible things I’ve done is what I’m living right now—moving alone to a country with a completely different culture, language, and lifestyle. Arriving in Dubai without knowing anyone and starting from scratch has been one of the most enriching and challenging experiences of my life. Coming from Latin America, everything here feels new, inspiring, and full of cultural energy.
Other amazing things I’ve done: I was a professional pilot for over 6 years, flying both airplanes and helicopters (I’m currently on a break but planning to return to it soon). I’ve also experienced things like nudism... and yes, believe it or not, the hardest of all has been *waiting*! For some people, waiting is impossible—but for me, it’s a real-life superpower 😂😂😂 (and probably the craziest thing I’ve mastered with a smile!).
Teach, Learn, Share
I’ve had the privilege of teaching as a flight instructor, specifically in instrument flight or what many know as flight simulation. I've taught student pilots on the ground how to fly, and the class I enjoy the most is aerial navigation—I'm truly passionate about it. I believe patience is one of my greatest strengths, and that has been key in teaching. I’ve taught both children and adults, mostly in areas related to technology.
One of my most outstanding students is actually my own mother—today she handles all her online tasks independently and even manages cloud storage. Her friends envy her skills! I even encouraged her to start learning English so she can come visit me in Dubai with my father.
Speaking of my dad, he has been an amazing teacher in my life. Though he's a journalist by profession with his own radio show, he has taught me everything from academics to life lessons. I remember him helping me with all my high school homework—he always made things easier to understand.
I want to speak perfect English—it's essential in today’s world. But now that I live in Dubai, I also want to learn Arabic. So if you want to teach me Arabic and would like me to teach you Spanish, that sounds like a perfect plan… let’s try it!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can offer great conversation and share my work and life experiences — especially if there’s an opportunity to collaborate or support in a meaningful way. I’m always up for sharing a good coffee, exchanging ideas, or simply enjoying a pleasant moment together. I'm open-minded, adaptable, and always ready to explore new plans or possibilities. I believe that even simple moments can lead to valuable connections.
