Being happy
ABOUT ME
I have not big material ambitions in life but to be happy, sometimes, the most difficult one. Anyway, I consider myself a lucky person because I have friends and family that love me and this make me feel fulfilled. I try to help people and do this world a little bit better not only doing some volunteering when I travel but also greeting my neighbours, having always a smile or treating people as I wanted to be treated too.
I don't believe in any religion but I respect all.
PHILOSOPHY
Live and let live.
Peace in the world start by simple and kind daily actions.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have quite experience being hosted, they were extremely friendly, all of them are now my friends.
Nowadays, I am living and working in Bloomington where my husband is studying. We live in a campus apartment and we could host somebody for one night.
The reason why I use couchsurfing is because I think is a fantastic way to meet amazing people from all around the world, both hosting or being hosted,and share experiences about travels and life.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Macau, Hong Kong, South Korea (Seoul, Andong, Gyeoungju, Busan and Jeju Island), Japan (Fukuoka, Hiroshima, Kyoto, Tokyo and Osaka) and Nicaragua (Managua)
Thanks a lot to all the people who hosted me, you will have a friend wherever I am!
And, my husband hosted me in Bluefields (Nicaragua)in 2011 so Couchsurfing changed my life :-)
