About Me

CURRENT MISSION

listen, learn, observe and learn again

ABOUT ME

Driven by tremendous acts of passion, I appreciate the little details of life, listen, learn and observe are my cornerstones.

I've been traveling around the world for few years and now I'm settled in the wonderful Sai Gon.

Coming from a western background, where we focus in individuals more than others, in career more than life, in money more than feelings; here I learnt how money and greediness is inverse proportional to happiness.

Here I learnt to share, to smile, to live my life looking for making others around me happy, because we are social animals, that's what makes us happy too; that's the meaning of life... it wasn't that difficult to realize after all isn't it? ;)

For me the life is a trip, where the most important thing is feeling, people and joy...leaving appart vanale things like money or stuff... are you ready to live a different experience?

More about me... uhm...

I like fantasy, the melancholy of a rainy day, think that I'm going to achieve it, the uncertainty, the optimism, a kid smile, the self confidence, the spanish omelet, wake up next to you, the surrealism, facing them; specially my fears, look at your eyes, the spring, a blanket and myself under, the color, walking on the grass barefoot, the altruism, being myself at every situation, take out the kid I have inside, the challenges, the sound of water, the unknown.

Don't like the routine, the fear, the intolerance, the cowardice, the people that don't listen, the egoism, being told what I should do, the indifference, the ignorance; worse think that you are not, going out the shower(its freezing), the falseness, you don't believing in yourself, the wet and cold hands, the bar napkins, forget the good things to remember the bad ones, the uncontrolled scepcticism, the hate.

PHILOSOPHY

Hakuna Matata, live and let live

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

With tremendous acts of passion

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

For me CS is the real Social Network.
After some years of trips from the furthest places to even inside my own house I've found CS is the best way to discover the world and enrich your soul.

You won't be anymore a traveler but a friend.

Couchin or hosting you will feel like traveling the globe, because for me people makes trips worth.
