About Me

I'm not very good at describing myself. I'm easy going and I adapt to most kinds of situations. I'm a bit shy at first, but once I start talking to someone I relax and let it go. I like sports and outdoor activities.
I usually travel with my husband. We get along and share interests. I met him in 2008 and we've been friends ever since.
We absolutely LOVE going to beaches and travelling to new places, meeting new people, learning about different cultures, eating good food and trying different beers and wines. When we are home, we always try to escape for short mountain bike trails at weekends and going to waterfalls on cities nearby.
We like hiking and mountain biking, swimming and being in contact with nature.
Guess I could tell you much more on a conversation!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My husband and I are new at this. We're about to have our first experience. We think that the best way of knowing somewhere new is through trying to have "the locals" experience and trying to get tips from people who actually know the place. A friend of mine told me about couchsurfing and the amazing experiences he has shared over the years, and when I went to talk to my husband about it, he said his English teacher had told him about it too, and he was also wishing to try it.
We are looking forward for our first, hopefully of many, experiences.

Interests

My husband and I like meeting new places and new people, learning about different cultures and sharing experiences. We like sports and outdoor activities, such as hiking and mountain biking. We love beaches and waterfalls and most things that involve water or nature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was an exchange student on an indian reservation in Idaho for ten months when I was only 16 years old. It was a city completely different from mine, a different culture and specially a different weather and I absolutely loved everything about it. I was able to learn a lot about life!
