About Me

Yo! Nice to connect!

I’m pretty honest, like to be myself and be around good people and share positive energy. I feel rich because I don’t need much and can do with even less. I’m very young compared to this world, and I’ll always remember that we were all kids not that long ago. I’m not that good at talking about myself, so why don't you check out my references?:)

"When you are hungry you have one worry, when you are full you have a hundred worries" - Tibetan saying

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like hosting more than surfing, it's like traveling without moving my bum! I believe everyone is connected so why not reach out to someone when you can?
