I’m Yerson,but you just call me YER, I am a passionate and curious traveler from Colombia, currently living in Poland, where I teach English to young people. I’m also a volunteer with the YMCA, where I do social work in vulnerable communities ; an experience that has taught me the value of empathy, teamwork, and connection.

I’m passionate about people, nature, and everything related to art. I love meaningful conversations, especially with a good cup of coffee, and I really enjoy cooking Colombian food to share a bit of my culture wherever I go. I’m also deeply interested in leadership and integral education, especially through outdoor experiences and camps.

For me, Couchsurfing is not just about a place to stay or host, it’s about exchanging stories, ideas, and kindness. I bring positive energy, curiosity, and respect to every space I share. If you host me, you can expect good conversations, laughter, and maybe a taste of Colombia on your table.
