CURRENT MISSION

Have Ithaka always in my mind

ABOUT ME

There is nothing more difficult than describe yourself, so I'll try my best..
My passion for travel and for learning about different cultures brought me to London several years ago, where i spent about 7 years. I used to work as IT then became a freelancer photographer. Now Im traveling the world in a "recalculating" mission (just like a GPS).
I'd like to consider myself as an eclectic person, flexible, active, sociable, adventurous, independent and in peace with myself.
Traveling is my way of living, a state of mind. I often travel alone and mix with locals to learn their ways of living, culture and history. I use no maps, use the moon to know the day and sun to know the time. You would often find me listening music or writing on my notebook.

PHILOSOPHY

"Almost everything you do seems insignificant but it is important that you do it" Ghandi

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been an active member before I even joined CS! I have hosted, surfed, meet up with other CS's, attend to meetings, even applied for CS jobs...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Overall I consider that everyone that is open to be a CS member and open their homes to an stranger and get into an stranger's home (and respect them) is a great person. Most people i have meet has been amazing and we have exchange great things.
