About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Changing career paths... the world needs sustainable development!!!

ABOUT ME

I am very easy going and enjoy traveling a lot and seeing people from all over the world (we have people from more than 6 different countries and we are only 10!). I am always ready for a trip anywhere and enjoy trying new places, restaurants, parks...

PHILOSOPHY

Life is very short not to have fun. I also believe that each one can make a big difference and learn from every experience and every person we meet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am joining as a host now, but I hope I could surf soon too!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My sister just hosted her first surfer and she had a good time showing him the city. I had friends (and some friends of friends) and they still talk to me... I think that is a good sign!

Interests

I am a volunteer with The ONE Campaign and Habitat for Humanity... and I hope to work on sustainable development soon (that is why I need to get accepted to school again!). I enjoy talking with people from all over the world and learning about their experiences and mostly what we all have in common.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Invisible Children, Before Sunrise, Rouge. Music: Almost everything... I am easy on this!
Books: Anything from Borges or Eco. The end of Poverty by Jeffrey Sachs

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went backpacking on my own to Europe for a month almost 8 years ago... and I still talk to some of the people that I met there! It was awesome!

Teach, Learn, Share

Even though it is hard sometimes to do... everything that happens can be interpreted as an opportunity. There is always something to learn from every day and from everybody.
