About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel, explore the world and help others as much as it is in my power. Then settle down at one of my favorite locations and run a small business.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I realised soon that Couchsurfing can be a great tool to meetup new people and get introduced to their cultures. Everyone know where the tourist areas of a city is, but i found it more interesting to immerse in the local life, visit hidden places, eat traditional food and enjoy what that city offers.

Interests

I do a little bit of everything, but my most favorite outdoor activity is hiking. Sightseeing when I am in the cities also qualifies.
