DISCLAIMER:
As Im getting older, I don't have as much time as I would like to for hosting or even meeting people from CS...
So I'm rightfully picky with hosting SO please don't even bother sending a couch request if it’s a copy/paste messages I won’t even answer to you…. :)

HOSTING INFO:
My name is not Tayta, Kalli, Ricardo, Arequipa, or whatever I wrote...
it’s just the simplest way to know if you read profiles or not… Now… find out which is my real name.... by reading profile...

About me:
I’m the CS Ambassador of de-facto country Arequipa (surrounded by Perú).

I'm interested in Basketball, Sustainability, Spiritualism and Anti-Speciesism. Désobéissance collective.
As well as Traditional Medicines/Plant Masters such as Ayahuasca, Peyote, Wachuma, Kambo, Bufo, etc.
I can share San Pedro/Peyote if you feel it, or recommend where to do ayahuasca and other ceremonies...

I enjoy doing Sports, Yoga, fasting and trying Meditation, past lifes....yeah... that kind of crazy things

So, I’m a portrait photographer and videographer since a few years now after surviving a period as automotive quality engineer in Europe and having dinners with g7 presidents, blabla…..
If you didn’t get it before, Im vegan, and vegan as f.., so don’t try teasing me.

Recently I was traveling in Central America and Colombia for a few months after backpacking 3 years in Europe, mainly trying to practice bikram yoga and meeting genuine characters.

I like languages, I hope to speak Polish decently hopefully soon, not forgetting my Italian, learning basics In Hebrew and Arabic and Lithuanian . Help is needed there.

CS EXPERIENCE:
- from 2020: Country/City/Nomadic Ambassador of Arequipa :)))
- Over 400 people hosted, even as picky as I am....
- Around 60 couchs surfed! they were not picky :)
- August 2016: Top14 of 150K host in Paris
- July 2014: previously ranked best Peruvian local/host U-24 in PERU....12th as HOST U-30yo...

Well yes, I somehow like numbers and competition…

So....

(this next paragraph is from my past life/profile or feels like)

Don’t you dare to call me Peruvian! ;) (or anything else) I’m from AREQUIPA ;) authentic cholololo characato ;) ....(100% Pedigree certified with Arequipenian passport)! I will show it to you if you ask for the privilege.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sharing is caring....w ri te San Pedro in Cuoch re q us t too ;).
I discovered that meeting different people helps you understand better this crazy world... and makes traveling more meaningful.

Interests

Playing basketball, bikram/hot yoga... photography
Learn to dance Samba... and improve my italian, Russian, polish...

Music, Movies, and Books

Medicine Music:
My Playlist: Ayahuasca MTV https://open.spotify.com/playlist/528klmIVZummqSXOA3buqk?si=xHv9TVDJRoy5ddDggT1rLg

I was DJ in my early 20's but now Im just deep into Medicine Music....

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A few .... but I've also done Ayahuasca with the one and only Taita Querubin in the Putumayo Colombia, for new year eve.... go if you have a chance.
San Pedro several times, DMT, and more plant medicines.. ask me if you feel the call from the medicines...

On the other hand, I'm very Humble but these people strongly disagree tho:

From Michael Jackson Neverland-Santa Barbara, California, United States Nov 25,1999

Very Positive

Arequipa s been my musical inspiration through my life. I do also love the music from the Davalos, I cry every time I heard their songs. Kev was the author of texts and music to my songs, but never talk about it. He is simply Fabulous! He convinced me to fake my death on 2009 then I came secretly to Arequipa after I felt in love with the vegan Frozen Cheese and his Moms food, and now im living hidden in Arequipa, formerly known as Heaven...happier than ever...even tough he asks me to perform anytime a CSers is in his house! I guess its the price of being his friend...#toootallyworthit

Sir Kevin showed that my theory E=mc2 is unfortunately wrong. He is genius. He also showed me the formula of happiness... a Caporal glass of his secret fruit juice...EUREKA

Positive
After he tried Ayahuasca ,he gave me all his hidden fortune, so I became the richest man in the world, before Elon and Jeff... Thank you :) w r ite ayahuasca.

From Kobe 'The Black Mamba' Bryant Pennsylvania, Philadelphia , United States Oct 28

Positive
Everybody believes that I copied MJ, but it was Kevin who taught me how to play the game. He's really modest but he should be considered in the top 3 of all-time , and even if I'm not sure, I would say he's even a lil bit stronger than Lebron, we are really closed friends and we play basketball as often as possible in that marvellous place called Arequipa in his backyard . Maybe see you while in his Couch. #MambaOut

From Marilyn Monroe Hollywood, United States Jun 18,2012

VERY BERRY Positive
I was in love with Kevin (and also Arequipa, and the food), but unfortunately he chose other woman, who's a singer; and Her Daughter.... OMGGGGGGG! A beauty!
Anyway I will leave him a positive reference. He owns my heart. xxx miss you too ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

Info about Arequipa, tips etc but more meaningful, I can share about sacred plant medicines... ;)

or I can try to open your eyes if you are not vegan .... I can try in a nice way :) without pain, like with kids… I can be mean ;)
