About Me

I finished my first journalist job in Malaga and decided to cycled to Grenoble in the French Alps. “When else would I have such an opportunity?”, I thought. I want to meet people along the way to make the experience memorable and fuller.

I am outgoing, adventurous, kind and curious.

PHILOSOPHY

Wear a smile as much as possible. Flow with the world and not against it. Always be kind to people and open to experiences. Live boldly, stay alive.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because people are at the heart of travelling and with couch surfing I can get to know more of them!
