ABOUT ME

I'm a very easy going person. I have my truths, but I don't take then so seriously.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm here to meet people from different cultures, no matter if travelling or in my city. CS is an amazing community and I've had really good moments here. :)

Interests

Travelling, painting, nightclubing, cooking, gigs, normal urban life. It sounds a cliche, but I get very excited when I'm in touch with a new culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most beautiful place that I've visited is Salar de Uyuni, in Bolivia. It's a surreal salt desert in the middle of the Andes.

Crossing the Mozambique's boundary to Malawi in an "amazing race style": train, bike-taxi, walking, a mini-bus (that broke in the middle of the way) and finally hitchhiking.

Skydiving in Namibia :)
