Travelling the world ⭐

ABOUT ME

Today, 15/09/2018 , it was time to update my profile after so many years and although the time has passed and I now have work experience, bill to pay, and a dog to take care, I can't tell you how happy I'm to see that I didn't change that much ;) I stand for the same value: respect and mind opening, refuse all injustice but  as well I still dream the same: travel the world! Get to meet new people, learn new culture, have my breath taken often, take the time to discover and enjoy :)  and above all live the experience of my life!

Travelling those years help me to become the person I'm today and I'm grateful that I could visit so many amazing places.  I can't say that everyday of travel are easy.. When you go out of the touristic path, you get to see some sad realities which are difficult to accept ..however  I'm convinced that travelling is the most enriching investment you can made ;) 

I like adventure and I believe the best trips are the one u didn't prepare.

We are lucky to live in a world with lots of beautiful places. I wish I live long enough to visit all of them.

I would add that I don't need a lot to be happy, I really enjoy the small and easy thing of the life: spending time with family, friends and a good beer sounds perfect to me :p

PHILOSOPHY

· They might have tell you, you have to succeed in life, I will tell you that you have to live. This is the biggest success ·

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe one of the best way to learn about a country is to get to know his inhabitant, listen to their story and share yours. We live in a world where technology is everywhere and it is sad to see that some people doesn't even take the time to talk to each others and just prefer to focus on their mobile. I like CS because he connect us, he connect people with same passion, he makes it easy to meet locals, people that want to share, teach you or show you something. The concept is just great! It is like arriving somewhere you have never been, but somehow there is already someone waiting for you :)

I had only successful experience with CS with host interested to spend time with me and show me their city. I met people with big heart that I won't forget. This is the real purpose of CS: learn about the others and share something. I'm often disapointed when I get email from people who just need a free accomodation... They didn't get the point of this site!
