About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Work and Travel in Canada

ABOUT ME

i love dancing to really loud music, i enjoy hanging out and discussing political issues. personally i don't know a better way than couchsurfing to get to know new people in a new country or city, to learn languages and exchange experiences. right now i can´t host anyone because i´m living in the guest room of my apartment and we don't have any extra space. it is also important to know that i am a vegan, don`t even think about starting a discussion about that, it will drive you crazy! :) when i'm at home i spend most of my time at Conne Island, a leftist cultural centre, where i do volunteer work and hang out and try to find out about what i would like to do with my life.

PHILOSOPHY

i am absolutely lucky in every kind of way and i try to share some of my contentment with the people around me. i might appear to be a little cranky at first but i don't mean it.
