CURRENT MISSION

To experience a meaningful life...

ABOUT ME

First and foremost: I believe in the CS philosophy. I believe in openmindedness, in learning, in cultural differences that should be valued. I believe in being a great host and a great guest. Lastly, I believe that strangers are friends we have yet to meet and I am always eager to make new friends.

----------------------------------

One of the things I want most out of life: to see the entire world! I don´t just want to go from place to place, I want to discover things. I want to discover things about myself, about others, about the way the world works, and whatever else there is out there.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm working on it...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started by couchsurfing in Europe while I was studying abroad. I surfed 4 places in 4 months, then I went on a 3 month backpacking trip and surfed the whole time. So now I'm both, couchsurfer and host and I love it!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed in Italy, Spain, Puerto Rico, Holland, Belgium, Greece, Switzerland, France and Ireland and my hosts were amazing!! Now I LOVE being a host and repaying the couch surfing community with some good hospitality.

Teach, Learn, Share

And when the brokenhearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be

For though they may be parted
There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be

--The Beatles
