About Me

CURRENT MISSION
To travel, learn about other cultures, people and the most important.. never stop to do this

ABOUT ME

I am traveling with my partner https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/aaron-smith-44 and I think is better if you read the references of people who know us, but I consider myself a person tolerant, sociable, a good listener and who love to teach and learn.

PHILOSOPHY

1.- "You do to others what you would have them do to you."
2.-Everything in life has a good and bad side.
3.-Meet people and travel, makes you switch perspectives ... You can learn from everything and everyone.
4. - This life is not all money or material assets... the world has many good people.
5.- Do it while you can!
6.- "Carpe diem"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

All my couchsurfing experience have been good, funny and unpredictable, and I love to travel with CS ... because you can be sure you will know the reality of each area. For me, it is a safer way to travel.

Interests

One of my goals is to live traveling around the world, I love the experience of meet another culture, new places and learn another language.
I'm here, probably because I had lived 10 months in Brazil, Florianopolis, where I learned to live more the life. In Ireland, I learn English, to cycle without important the climate and the important to have appropriate clothes. I like to walk, dancing (Forro, Zouk ...) and I'm still trying to learn to surf.
I love to take care of myself and enjoy every moment, but above all, I love traveling and meeting new people.
