I love to create and to explore while doing it, let myself be inspire by my surroundings and express my gratitude to the present moment through visual representation. I spend my leisure time reading, dancing, working out, stretching and breathing, exploring with my bike, drawing, cooking cruelty-free vegan food ❤️
I also love languages because I perceive them as bridges rather than limitations or walls.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

- seeking to experience new cities through local insights
- learn new languages (get out of the touristy spots)
- support the concept of equivalent exchange

Sharing experiences together, and a community way of living helps us thrive and be in love with life.
