Hi everyone!

My name is Valentina and I am 22 years old colombian girl. I studied Political Science and Law in France and now I'm doing an Erasmus Mundus Master's in Humanitarian Action. I'm moving to Sierra Leone to do an internship. So excited to be in Africa for a while!

I love to travel. I prefer to experience local life and get to know the cities with local people instead of taking tours. It could be kind of weird, but I like seeing how people live depending on the country. One of my dreams is to visit the whole world. I've visited my first 50 countries before turning 22.

Apart from travelling, I'm passionated about history, conflicts and culture. I love photography, nature and hiking.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I downloaded CS when I was 15/16, during my first solo trip around Europe. I didn't use it too much but it was a great experience to meet some people through Hangouts.

When I moved to France, I wanted to open my apartment to travelers. It was an amazing experience. When I'm not traveling, I love listening to travel stories and learning words in other languages.

Centres d'intérêt

Even if it's kind of weird, I'm really interested in geography, history, philosophy and politics. But I have normal interests as photography, painting and skateboarding.
