I’m Santiago from Colombia. I work in advertising and digital marketing, but my real passion is traveling and connecting with people from different cultures.

I’m curious, open-minded, respectful, and I love good conversations. I enjoy exploring local food, hidden places, and anything related to music or art.

For me, travel is about experiences, not just destinations. I like to live each trip as if I were a local and share moments with people along the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I believe traveling is not just about seeing places, but also about meeting people. Couchsurfing is a chance to connect, share cultures, and create memories with people I would never meet otherwise.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is part of my daily life. I enjoy many genres, from electronic and pop to Latin and indie sounds.

Movies: I like everything from documentaries and thriller films to terror and comedy.

Books: I enjoy reading about personal growth, culture, and sometimes novels that inspire me to see the world differently.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I swam regularly to challenge myself and improve my health, and it became one of my biggest achievements. Also, I once planned a multi-country trip from South America to Australia on a budget, and it taught me how resourceful and adventurous I can be.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I can share about cooking different desserts, marketing, and Spanish language.
Learn: I’m currently improving my English and also interested in learning Portuguese and French.
Share: Travel stories, Colombian culture, and good vibes over food or music.
