About Me

ABOUT ME

Hey there! I'm an easy going person, respectful, open-minded and adaptable. Empathic and friendly. A good sense of humor makes me happy. And I couldn't live without laughing and smiling! :-)

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe diem.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is quite new for me, in the sense of using this tool. I've been coachsurfing in Brisbane, at Pune's and Dion's place. And then, of course, I've been at friends of friends places, and friends of friends have been at my place!

Interests

I love traveling (of course, otherwise I wouldn't be here!) and exchanging experiences with people from all over the globe.
My other passion is music. I love indie music and I go to all the live concerts and festivals I can.
Practising sports is high in the list of things I like to do, too.
And of course, my family and friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

From the trip of my life (up to now) to Australia and New Zealand, there are several "magic" moments, as I like to call them. One of them was at Kakadu National Park. I was travelling with a friend, we had rented a very small car, had nowhere to sleep. We stopped at a clearing in the woods, as the sunlight was fading away. We met an Australian guy and we naturally decided to spent the night together. We lighted a campfire, shared our food and when it was completely dark and beneath a canopy of stars, he took his guitar and started singing: Angus & Julia Stone, Ben Harper, The Kooks, Frightened Rabbit, Damien Rice, Eddie Vedder...what a voice! So, so magic! :-)
It was a veeeeeery long moment, wasn't it? ;-)
