I travel on a budget to gain more perspective and understanding of human behaviours. I love travelling because I am a fan of diversity, social structures, social systems, design, architecture, language, and culture among others. I am fascinated by the fact that we are all different but similar at the same time. I see human differences and similarities as the primary reasons of our existence. I believe that cultural differences alongside kindness, love and respect unite people, not set them apart. I love meeting people from different walks of life, from different parts of the world. I'd love to learn different languages. I love exploring the world, seeking for adventures. I am an environmentally-inclined person. I have equal respect for nature and its beings. I'd love to hear stories from people around the world, locals and tourists alike and make friends with them! Been recording my trips since I first did it solo in 2013! :)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

As they say, "When in Rome, do what Romans do". For me living like a local with locals (and tourists as well) is what makes travel the rich, vibrant experience that it is. Being able to experience local culture, food, and being able to talk to and make friends with people you meet for the very first time is the next best thing in this world since eating! Lol!

Ultimately, I am on Couchsurfing because I trust that people are kind, honest, and trustworthy....because I still have faith in humanity.
