About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Growing as a person, by trying new things, learning from others and taking decisions :)

ABOUT ME

Honestly, I've filled so many profiles already...Anyway, to those of you who don't know me, I'm a very open minded person, always looking to experience new things. I like learning languages and cultural exchange, and I've been in touch with people from other countries since 2004 and even before that, in different ways (as regular pen pals writing regular mail, meeting foreigners in person, by chat and email, and also when I coordinated an English speaking group).
I'm very responsible, non smoker, social drinker (though I'm not very keen on alcohol), some people used to say I was very mature for my age, and in general I get on better with people who are older than me though that's not a rule. I enjoy socialising, I don't care whether it is in a pub or drinking tea with scones, I just like being with people. I also enjoy my time alone though, and I'm a very good listener.

PHILOSOPHY

Smile, be polite and respectful, and help others whenever you have the chance. In words of Ace of Base: "Carry on smiling, and the world will smile with you".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started joining this group after a suggestion made by an Argentinian friend. Slowly I'm getting to know other couchsurfers and I hope I can make good friends while using CS. I already had my first experience staying with another couchsurfer and I can't complain at all. I also participate in a few groups here, probably will join other groups in the near future :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As I said, I already had my first experience staying with a nother couchsurfer and it's been great! Unfortunately I can't host anyone at home as the house is not mine and there aren't enough rooms, but as soon as I have my own place I'd like to give it a try. Other than that, if I'm in the same location as you, feel free to message me and we can eventually meet for a cup of coffee!
