Sobre mí

CURRENT MISSION
Travel with my two young children and husband, show them how great the world is.

I am an easy-going person with an optimistic outlook on life, always willing to make new friends from different areas and cultural backgrounds. Experiencing life from other perspectives teaches me so much, that's why I think travel and having deep conversations with different people will enrich ourselves and help us grow.

PHILOSOPHY
-Everything will be okay in the end, if it's not okay, it's not the end.
-You always can learn something from others, even the ones you hate.
-The first casualty when war comes is truth.
-A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.
-To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty in its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

It’s such a good way to connect with other people and share your life with them.
I met a lot of cool friends through CS and when I travel, I can get more inside perspectives about that place from locals than just staying in a hotel. In the meantime, I get the chance to share my experience and stories with them. Singing, cooking, talking, and playing board games together, I will not trade such moments with anything else.
