About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be the change you want to see in the world

ABOUT ME

I'm a nice guy whose most of the dreams involve traveling. So, when I first read about CS, I knew this was something I wanted to be part of.
There's nothing like getting to know different people, places, new cultures.
I also love sports, I've already tried lots of different kinds of it but I still couldn't find my real hability.
Love books, movies and music too
And, last but not least, I love food (this is easily seen when people look the size of my belly =) No trip is complete without tasting the local cuisine.
So, if you want to meet this shy simple guy, don't hesitate to contact me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live alone and I have a comfy extra matress. I also can be a tour guide sometimes.
My daily routine is kind of hard, I wake up at 5:20 am and get home around 8 pm. So, hosting on week days is kind of hard to me. However, I'll be more than happy to host and show around on weekends and holidays.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love and hate couch surfing.
Love it because it gives you the opportunity of learning a lot from the people you meet. You make new friends, and you may even go to places you usually don't know in your own city. No money can buy this kind of thing.
Hate it because you get attached to people who live far far away from you and you won't be able to meet them as often as you'd like. So, the goodbyes are always kind of sad.
Ok, but, between love and hate, I always choose love!
