CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life, meet new people and discover new places, learn from the different realities, views and experiences from others.

ABOUT ME

I'm a friendly, self-confident person, open to have new challenges in my personal and professional life, interested in traveling and knowing more about different cultures and places, eager to learn from everyone and everything. A kind soul looking for true human connection.

PHILOSOPHY

Be openminded, eager to learn, passionate about life, and never lose the capacity of becoming amazed by even the smallest and simplest things around you.

'"..Better by far to simply try and be good and courageous and bold and to make a difference. Not change the world exactly, but the bit around you. Go out there with your passion and your electric typewriter and work hard at...something. Change lives, through art maybe. Cherish your friends, stay true to your principles, live passionately and fully and well. Experience new things. Love and be loved, if you ever get the chance" (David Nicholls).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started to be a member of Couchsurfing in 2008 when I was living in La Paz. First my flatmate Johann and I offered our couch to other couchsurfers for 1 year, organized a few events and showed our city around. My best memory is a night when we organized a dinner and we met very nice people who brought their typical food and drinks from different countries. While living in Barcelona, I met people for a drink, a walk and talk, and showed Barcelona around every now and then. I sometimes travel and stay with other couchsurfers which is really nice too! what can I say, so far so good! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I can tell you different things about my country, the cities I have lived in and the places I've been to!
