Would you like to be my friend?

Canadian-Colombian looking for advice: I am moving to Vancouver this summer. I appreciate any new friends and tips.

Studied Buddhist psychology/philosophy in the Himalayas since 2017. I plan to study and get license in Psychotherapy/Counselling in Vancouver now.

I moved to Canada in 2006 and I'm used to starting a new life. Trying Couchsurfing now because people here are the coolest on Earth.

I've been single for a decade, dedicated to my spiritual growth and helping others walk their own path.

I'm very easy going, down to earth, honest, transparent guy. I’m a 44 year old, gay man.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking for new local friends to learn how is experienced from your side. Best way to really know a city.

Interests

I love all forms of artistic expressions: classical music, theatre, and dance moves me deeply. I also like to exercise and walk. I started doing yoga and meditation 20 years ago.
I'm constantly driving to hone my mind/conscience/awareness and practice.
I love exploring the sacred in me via dancing, singing, theatre, meditation, and other rituals.
I am not afraid of making mistakes and I am learning to embrace my inner child and heal his wounds.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've survived an almost fatal car accident. This near-death experience pushed me to start a fresh new life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching how to dance to salsa, merengue, vallenato, cumbia, bachata, and other Caribbean rhythms! 💃

I can share all the knowledge I've gather from my Buddhist teacher and A Course In Miracles. 🤓

I run daily meditation sessions on Zoom. We can have meditation sessions together!
😇

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cook, share experiences, meditate together!
We can also work out together if you like a gym buddy. I love nature, so hiking and going to the beach is always preferred.
