About Me

I am Colombian with Austrian roots. I believe my generation has not only the opportunity but the responsibility to think of innovative ways to make this world more human and more liveable for every person who lives on it.

I believe travel is the best school.

I have professional experience in developing and implementing social projects in Colombia. I am mostly concerned with education, peace building and rural development.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that empathy, trust and cooperation are forces that can move the world and make it place more liveable for all of us. Couch surfing is the materialization of all these forces. Couch surfing makes the world smaller and our minds and hearts bigger.
