About Me

Hey! Nice to meet you!

I am currently travelling around the world. I like drawing whatever I find beautiful (mainly architecture and landscape), hiking and discovering new people. I love raising a smile to people and be there whenever people needs me.

Note: if at some point I say or do something that made you uneasy, please do tell me. I will reflect and change accordingly. I believe communication is of utmost importance between people of differents cultures 🤙

Philosophy:
Travel is all about the journey
Be nice and magic can happen
Learning from everything and everyone

Please, go to my home to know why I have no surfers recommendations

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet you, dear reader, to enrich my trip with your knowledge and, hopefully, your time as well!

The long one: I got a friend back home that loves couchsurfing, and had a lot of incredible experiences. I usually stayed in hostels but there is more travelers than locals (which has its pros, i agree). Because I will to travel the world for a few years I wanted to have another experience of travelling. And leaving my confort zone as well!

Music, Movies, and Books

Electronic, Pop and Indie Music are my most favorite genres. But in truth, I appreciate all kinds of music.
I read pretty much anything on any genre (true book worm). Currently reading : General Linguistics Courses and la señorita de Tacna
I enjoy contemplation movies. But usually I don't watch much, and even less series

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quitting my job (and a life set on tracks) to travel the world and meet other people

Did my Camino de Santiago (failed the marked one)

Kindess of people whenever you are lost

The midnight sun and aurore borealis

Silence in the desert. And then life start again and the silence is gone...

Teach, Learn, Share

"Learning" Spanish
I believe that everybody can teach everyone something. Most of the time unbeknownst to the "teacher"!

I can teach some french, or recipes

What I Can Share with Hosts

A sense of humor, cooking bread, pasta or pizza from scratch, book recommendations, deep talks, a smile and anything I can do to help you!
Oh, and i shower once a day, and i don't smoke
