Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I ve been introduced to CS by travellers that share a road trip with me in Australia. I then took it solo to New Zealand and made great friends along the way.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
The first CouchSurfing I did was in Australia in a wonderful family in Darwin that hosted me and other 10-15 other CouchSurfers, all so happy about the wonderful cooking, everyday inspired from a different corner of the world ( we all exchanged recepies and tips), Snakes Hunting at night time, BBQs, CS meeting on the beach at sunset, Trips to NightMarkets and City, Rave Party in the forest and other endless nights all together drinking, talking while fighting mosquitos. Great experience, that really made me understad that meeting and leaving new people is always a wonderful gift.

Interests

I love reading, Neruda and Coelho are my muses.

I love music in all shapes and forms. I am an amateur singer ( I like to share musics with friends and family) and I can timidly play a few guitar tunes :) I adore live music, passionate people that love sharing their passions.

I love spending time listening to music and doing long walks in the nature, centenary parks are my favourite. I like making order around me as far as leaving mess behind me when i feel creative. I love indie rock music i can listen to every kind of music.

I love cats and roller-blades and ice skating. I have never been skying, on Mt Everest and in most of the wonderful places that you should see at least once in your life, but I'm working on it :) I recently tried sky diving and every year I try to face one of my fears and visit at least 3 new places I have never seen before.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am terribly scared of HORROR MOVIES! I love singing and I'm trying to learn some guitar tunes :)
''The Warrior of the Light'' by Paulo Cohelo is my favourite book, but in general I love reading about Social sciences and stories with a morale. I absolutely Love reading, I can read up to 3 books at the same time if like all of them! I listen to all sorts of music, I am just not that great with heavy metal, sorry!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a very joyful person. I love sharing and learning from anyone I meet along the way. If you are up for a chat I would be there, if you had a long day, I fall asleep quite easily too :) I haven't done couch surfing in a long time so I would love to be the best guest you can have around!
