About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy the everyday learning process

ABOUT ME

I was born in Carora, a small colonial town in the Venezuelan countryside. I lived there until I finished high school and then I went to study in Bali, Indonesia, for 6 wonderful months. Right now I'm in Caracas majoring in Modern Languages, a chaotic but special city that I've grown to love.

Athough I can be a little shy sometimes, I'm still pretty sociable and I love talking, sharing experiences with other people and just having fun.

Interests

Where to start...?
There are so many things I'm interested in! I suppose I could start with the reason I'm here. I, as everybody else here, love to travel. I think traveling is the best way to learn about anything: culture, languages, society, history... It is also the best way to get to know yourself and to create bonds with people from all over the world, which is precisely what CouchSurfing is about.

Apart from traveling, I like desserts, taking walks, watching films, having fun, horseback riding and meeting and learning from cool new people.

Teach, Learn, Share
