Hi,
I'm Claudia and I believe I had what they called the "perfect" life, according to society's standards. The job and the social life; however, I was still unhappy and living a lie, so I gave up everything and I started a new journey to discover myself. I always wanted to travel and meet new cultures, but I was always too scared to get out of my comfort zone. I finally turned the page and I have decided to travel the world. I would love to meet as many people I can. I'm very easy going and outgoing person. Food and craft beer lover.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I gave up everything in my life to change this crazy routine I have experienced the past 5 years. They say "traveling soothes the soul" and time is limited, so it's now or never.
