About Me

CURRENT MISSION

still figuring out

ABOUT ME

I'm a half Guatemalan (I lived there 14 years) half Belgian (where I currently live) girl who loves to travel and to meet new people. I love to dance (whether it's hip hop, jazz dance, salsa, belly dance or flamenco), to laugh, and to talk. I'm very interested in other cultures (guess it has to do with my own background and guess that's why I study Anthropology now). I love to go on vacations, I love the summer (though I also love snow or a delightful tropical rainstorm), I love food (both making and eating it), etc. I'm pretty sure I can love everyone (I tend to look at the good side of people) and everything (as long as there's good company I think any job/task/activity can be fun :)) and every place!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love the idea of people trusting each other and of intercultural sharing and communication. I want to contribute to the CS project by opening my doors to people from all over the world (whether to stay at my place, to have a drink together or to act as guide) and by surfing myself! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Last summer I couchsurfed with some friends during our roadtrip in the US and it was great! I loved CS so much that I intend to couchsurf and to host again and again! :)
