About Me

I am quite active and I love wandering around getting lost in the city, drawing, going to concerts or pubs with live music, beer and talking to anyone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed in a few countries and hosted some great people that turned out to be really nice friends.
A part from the "classic" couchsurfing experience, I have join a lot of the meetings, whilst travelling and living in different cities, and like that I have met some of the most amazing people ever.

Interests

I love having a hot coffe/cocoa while chatting with someone on a cold day, taking photos, drawing, going to art exhibits or wandering around trying to find great street art.

I also love live music of any kind but If I had to choose I would say punk, indie, rock and lately some electronic music.
If I could choose a sport I'd choose basketball, and I can often be found watching basketball games at unsual hours at night...

I also happen to have other interests, such as going out with friends, learning new languages and making a fool of myself whilst trying to speak, singing in the shower, though I am not that good, reading, dancing, and having fun in general.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being an Aupair in Ireland for four months, working with three super duper mega active kids and a really nice family.

I think there is nothing more amazing that getting to spend time with the ones you love, so I can recall that all the crazy travels or meetings I have had with my friends, are good enough to be mentioned here. I believe it's all about the small things.
