🌍 About Us

Hi! We’re Tyler and Valeria — a Canadian/Colombian couple currently backpacking through Europe before heading back to university.

✨ Background

Tyler studied engineering, worked as a video editor for a large social media company, and taught English in Thailand. He’s traveled to 100+ countries and enjoys storytelling and learning from people.

Valeria has a background in psychology and is a professional dance teacher. Her family owns a dance studio in Bogotá, where she teaches Cuban salsa, LA salsa, and bachata.

🤝 Personality

Clean, respectful, and easygoing
Friendly and social, but also mindful of personal space
Independent, open-minded, and always happy to help out

🙌 Final Note

We really appreciate anyone who opens their home to us—it’s something we don’t take lightly. We aim to bring good energy, respect, and gratitude wherever we go.

Looking forward to meeting you 😊
