About Me

ABOUT ME

Love to be around other people, spontanious, enthusiastic, direct, impulsive, loyal and definitely open and sincere. Sometimes I'm a bit too direct and not very subtle ;) At least you never have to guess what I am thinking, I kind of put it all out there.

PHILOSOPHY

When you're always waiting for the conditions to be right, nothing will happen. Not 'when I have money/time blabla I will...' No, if you want it, arrange for or do it now!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I live for travelling and I enjoy meeting new people, and above all, I love to be surprised by new perspectives, either by talking to people, indulging in different cultures or just by seeing how things are done in countries different from mine.

If I host, expect cooking-sessions, visiting local gems/secrets, fun :)

* I have a preference at the moment for hosting girls or couples.

IMPORTANT:
* CS is not a dating app, if you want to hook up, date, or find love, I suggest Tinder, Happn or the more serious dating websites.
* CS is not a "cheap, I will just save a lot of money & will use my Host's hospitality to the max" - platform.
If you want to get local, and spend quality time, I am your gal, otherwise, find a hostel or don't travel if you can't afford, also a possibility is to work and travel at the same time, or do volunteering with boarding ( see HappyCaravan.org )

ok this was my rant, hope to see you soon!
