Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This kind of projects are just amazing. Me, as photographer, I thought time before about a photogaphic project that consist in telling all my travels trough the people I know trough this kind of webs. Not looking for the tipical pictures that everybody know, but showing how I experienced the place trough the people. In all my travels, always the most important was the people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Until now I've just travelling trough Hospitality club, and all the experiences I've had, hosting and as a guest have been amazing. I've also had another experiences not trough any wab, but the spirit of the people I know was the same. Hospitality, kindness, openminded... And thanks to them I realized that this kind of things are the best experiences in life

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing that I've done is to have been born. I can asure that EVERY DAY I do and see, at least, one amazing thing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I used to give private lessons of maths, physics and tecnical drawing, also English lessons. I also teach photography(just some things, I can't teach anybody to look), in general I love to teach others anything I can know. Knoledge and love are the two most valuable treasures that one can take of people.
