About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Spread love and happiness to all!

ABOUT ME

I'm an optimistic and curious person. Overall, I'm quite easygoing. My big flaw is that I'm a doubter: I have to think everything through and sometimes I'm afraid to make the wrong decisions and I don't want to miss out on anything! But I've also learned that 'going with the flow' can lead you to have the best experiences of your life!

PHILOSOPHY

'Look on the bright side of life!'

'Those who lose themselves in passion lose less than those who lose their passion.'

'As vezes nos dejamos llevar por la prisa
y olvidamos aquella sonrisa.'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love travelling, so I figured CouchSurfing would be an ideal way of meeting new interesting people and discovering new cultures!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I´ve been travelling through Brasil for 2 months only making use of Couchsurfing and I loved it! I´ve met some beautiful people whom I consider best friends now and I think I will never want something else than couchsurfing after these amazing experiences!
Afterwards, I´ve been couchsurfing with my boyfriend as well, who liked it as well and we are now really looking forward to hosting people!

Interests

- dancing (salsa and flamenco, but I'll dance to almost everything :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I loved Bocas Del Toro, Panama, and how time just seems to stop there.
My boyfriend and I try to visit every waterfall and labyrinth that's on our way, it has become sort of a hobby =)
But maybe my most amazing experience has been travelling through Brasil; it´s people are so warm and kind-hearted, it´s nature is breathtaking and the food was delicious!
In general I'm open to all sorts of vacation; I love hiking but also hitch-hiking and city-tripping...
