Hi! My name is Valeria and I live in Taray, Cusco, Peru with my boyfriend Nicholas and my cat Mooni. We are peruvians and speak Spanish and English, and can also understand Portuguese. We live in a beautiful house in the mountain, right outside the town. The closest city is Pisac, it’s small, quiet and hippie, and you can meet interesting people any day.

Coming back to me, I love baking so there’s always treats in the house. I also love cats and extra points if you like cats too. My partner and I are also vegetarian. I play the guitar, ukulele and ceremonial drum. I also like singing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I spend a lot of my time home, away from the hustle of the outside. I enjoy having people over, hearing their stories, and sharing mine.

I also like travelling and love the idea of staying with locals and getting all the insight and gifting them a little bit of my culture.
