Hi, I am Martina and I am trying to live my life less ordinary, one filled with freedom, independence, creativity, adventure and excitement. I have been traveling the world since 2011 with some short breaks.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to be more than a tourist in other countries, love to get to know you all and your cultures.

I am not a party girl, tho I enjoy some beer or glass of wine in a good company. But going out to bar or club is not really my thing. I am a calm girl, love long walks and nice conversation, watching good and also silly movies and small concerts. Just thought you should know this before you will accept my request, so I don't have to look for excuses when it comes to invitation for spending night out :)

*** Recently I can't unfortunately host anyone as I am constantly travelling, but I have some really awesome friends in Prague with apartments, so drop me a message anyway and I can ask them (they are not on CS) :)

Interests

Dreaming of all the possibilities in life. Making those dreams a reality.

I am always discovering myself so I like to stay open to new experiences.
In a very general way, I have always been interested in all that is related with nature, ocean, conservation.
I like to hike the mountains, dive in the ocean, explore the caves. I like sports, so every outdoor activity sounds like the perfect plan. Rock climbing, mountain hiking, kayak, birdwatching, diving, bike, surfing,... I will enjoy everything :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Diving with whale sharks and his five mates in Philippines was a really unforgettable moment. Seing those gentle giants in their natural habitat, to swim side by side with them, was so indescribable.

Teach, Learn, Share

We are learning all the time, from everything... kids, trees, a situation, old man, the wind, the jungle, without end...
Sharing, cooperation and acceptance its whats make us humans, beens of love..
and how Baba Dioum said:we will conserve only what we love, we will love only what we understand, and we will understand only what we are taught

the sharing, teaching and learning comes all together...

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, passion for protecting our fragile and beautiful planet or we can go for a hike together :)
