Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am kinda new at couchsurfing, but Id really like to participate and get to know people from everywhere around the world, right now I can't receive csurfers in my house but i would be happy to at least taking them to know my country or have a nice coffee whenever possible. Also it would be nice to participate in cs group activities.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience was in Canada, during my externship at Guelph University and it was awesome! I met so many great and diverse people and they helped me so much that I will thank them forever! Also met some couchsurfers in Toronto and then in Niagara Falls with whom I explored Niagara.
Couchsurfers meeting in Dublin! I was travelling alone and it was great to meet people from around the world!
I have never stayed in a couch yet. But I have received one in my house, a Hungarian woman that I met thanks to CS in Canada then came to Costa Rica and stayed in my house.

Interests

As a Vet I am obviously interested in animals and their welfare. Aditionaly, I really like photography and I am always trying to take diferent shots of almost everything.
I like swiming, going to movies, rafting, hiking, adventure games/sports. Hanging out with friends. Meeting new people from all around the world and learn about new cultures.
I really don't like politics! Just gets me bored...

I'm very open minded, I respect every culture and beliefs and I am very curious.
I am Agnostic, not part of any religion. I do find sintoism very interesting.
I am gay and demisexual. Feel free to ask if you don't know what that is, or just do a quick search in Google or chat gpt.

No soy demasiado fan del tele, pero prefiero películas que series.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going to nude beaches, connecting with nature, accepting my body and embracing it was a really freeing experience.

Singing for the first time in front of people in a concert.
