About Me

I am a calm woman, interested in cultural activities, mostly the sort of work that help us connect art to Spirit. Very concerned about nature issues and conscious human interactions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think CS is a very good alternative to complement turism and to broaden our perspective of places and their inhabitants.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Salsa (Classic trends, 70's), Latin Jazz, Reggae....

Movies: Casino, Relatos Salvajes, Trainspotting, and some of Tarantino's work.... Spanish films.

Books: I love different types of books, but I have recently read Zygmunt Baumann and I found him very inspiring. The Bhagavad has also led me to draw meaningful conclusions in terms of Spiritual insights.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To be involved in a Gaita Dancing Festival and in a very promising cultural project in the Colombian Caribbean coast.

To have explored unknown but breathtaking natural places in Peru.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would gladly share my experience dancing Salsa music (especially a very select collection that I have gathered in the last years, and that I would love to talk about), and how to use quinua in many delicious forms. I think that learning is so open and vast that there is no restriction in this subject. I am willing to learn any new things!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to share my view about my country; not the common perspective broadcast through the media, but an observation based on my travels accross Colombia that allow me to narrate other dimensions and feelings of this awesome territory.
