Hi everyone!

My name is Valentina and I am 23 years old colombian girl. I studied Political Science in France and I just finished my Erasmus Mundus Master's in Humanitarian Action. After living in Sierra Leone for a while, I moved back to Barcelona (one of my favourite cities in the world).

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.

Por que estou no 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.

Thanks to this community I have visited a lot of countries on a low budget so I would like to return the favour and host people at home.

Interesses

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

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

I could teach you Spanish or French. Or if you want, I will be glad to talk about my country, Colombia!

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

I you accept to host me, I will be glad of teach you some things about my culture and my country. I'm a terrible cooker but I can try to make a typical dish from my country.
