About Me

I'm a rock climber, student, and web developer.

I love traveling to new places and meeting new people! I'm very easy-going and understanding.

I'm only 21 but already focused on living off of my own earnings. I was blessed with parents who give me a lot of freedom of what I want to do and when I want to do it, so right now I'm trying to travel and climb as much as I can without needing economical support from them. I think time goes way too fast and we need to enjoy every single second before it slips away.

I usually work throughout the morning and climb for a solid 3 hours in the afternoon.

I enjoy having plentiful conversations with people, whatever topic. That, accompanied by a glass of wine or a beer can be the last touch to make a perfect day after a good climbing session.

I also love cooking! I don't know a whole lot about it but I love doing it, especially for other people. So if you like eating, we'll probably get along quite well :)

Hope to get the chance to meet you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm gonna be honest, the reason I first downloaded Couchsurfing was to be able to travel on a tighter budget. However, after traveling through Canada using it, I quickly realized that it's about so much more than that!

I made some great friends in every city that I went to who showed me some awesome spots that I would probably not even have heard of otherwise! I didn't just visit cities, I actually got immersed into the culture and got to know their way of living.

I think that's absolutely amazing, and something that you just can't get if you travel any other way.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like listening to music during 90% of my day. Sometimes rap, sometimes pop, sometimes lofi hip hop, sometimes things I wouldn't even know what to call. Really depends on what I'm doing.

I like reading but haven’t been doing it recently :( book recommendations are welcome though!

I'm always down to watch a movie but it's not something I'd just do in my freetime

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- I started working as a Freelance Web Developer just after taking an online course and now am living off of that :)

- I competed in 3 World Youth Climbing Championships and 2 Pan-American Championships.

- I traveled through Canada for almost 3 months without economical support from my parents when I was 19

- I camped outside an abandoned mansion in Italy

- I climbed La Marmolada, the tallest mountain in the dolomites

- Many other things that I'd rather share with you in person! :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can give you a couple rock climbing lessons and teach you Spanish ;) maybe show you what website I'm currently working on if you're interested.

I'd love to learn to cook and some new languages! Especially French or German

What I Can Share with Hosts

I could help with some house chores, take you rock climbing and buy you a beer :)
