Overview
About Me
I have just finished a long travel in Latin America, now I am in Paris for a while doing my masters. I am passionate about art, culture and architecture. I love nature and camping. If you are searching for a boulder or climbing partner send me message! I am easygoing and open minded. I enjoy meeting with likeminded or different people, learning languages (and learning in general), cultures and travelling. Quietness, peace and not rushing all the time are also quite important to me ;)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love traveling and I want to travel as much as I can learning about the culture of the country that I visit. The best way of doing this is by knowing the locals and spending time doing what they do. My house is also open to anybody who shares the same purpose.
