Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend of mine started using this to travel all around the world. Now I am doing it!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

GREAT so far

Interests

I love to drink coffee, trekking, mountains, monkeys, forest, rain, rivers, hammocks, good conversations, beer, food, alternative lifestyles. I want to travel the World learning from others, living as others live, doing what others do and eatting what others eat. I like to collect strange musical instruments and mix their sounds to make music. I want to know what happiness means to people from different places and to live it with them. I aim to understand what is it that motivates communities to join for a non-profitable reason and to fight for that.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got lost in an island without electricity nor reception in the middle of the Titicaca Lake. Hiked to the middle of the cloud forest with all my clothes wet for 7 rainy days, watching beautiful landscapes and looking for monkeys. Stayed in a squat in London and joined them for protests, short road trip with environmental activists in Sidney, hitchhiked in New Zealand, live in a tent in the middle of the rainforest inside Manu National park for about 2 years, and Many other things that are very nice to remember...now I´m smiling!

Teach, Learn, Share

I think i could teach anyone how to have fun with little money, i also could share some stories, help you practice your Spanish and maybe some dancing! I would like to learn about other people's life and what is their passion. I want to try all kinds of food and dance all kinds of music.
