I have always been interested in meeting and getting to know different cultures all around the world ever since I was a kid. Discussing languages and other countries has always been a hobby of mine, and I hope to get to know more people from all corners of the globe so that we can share our common knowledge about everything!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet new people, specially to sharpen up my English not-so-mad skills. Gotta keep practicing to stay tip top.
