Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will travel for the first time in Europe, and I'll meet with my Best Friend in Berlin. At this moment I will begin my life again, something like a Catharsis, and I want to meet new persons and cultures. And obviously, I want to enjoy this trip.

Music, Movies, and Books

Well about my music, I love one Spain group called Vetusta Morla, but in genres, I love Tango, Jazz (big Band, and Classic Jazz), Rock, Salsa, and others. But I'm still without connecting with Regueton and heavy metal.
My favourite movies, well superheroes I love it, one of my favourite movies is the nevereding story, but I don't like horror movies.
My favourite book, and actually one of the most important, because that book change part of my life is The Dark Tower by Stephen King. But I like authors like Borges, Cortazar, Fernando Vallejo, Lovecraft, Tolkien.
At this moment I'm reading the Satanic Verses by Salman Rushdie.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Something incredible was created four companies, in this moment Totem is my fifth. But I love it because I could learn about innovation and entrepreneurship.
Another thing, was my first travel to Mexico, was amazing I met a lot of people and I did many things to interact with the culture.
Well, and the last part was created board games for companies to develop and improve processes and business model.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, something that I can teach, well is Dance tango, tips to develop board games, innovation methodology uses in Latin America and consulting for entrepreneurship.
I can share many stories and bads jokes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Ok, probably I can offer you, some Colombian food that probably I will have in my package. But at the same time If you need something because you have a company, or you want to create a new business I could help you with the most important and is validate the market or create a good prototype for your project. Or I can teach you tango, the basis.
