About Me

I'm easy to be around, and try to be supportive as much as I can.
I'm really good at listening, though I don't usually talk too much... unless you find the right topic: in that case I could probably talk for hours no-stop!
Everything else, it's nice to discover.

"Everyone you meet knows something than you don't: in that thing, learn of them."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Understanding, learning, changing perspective, meeting new people and interacting with them, their culture and values: that's something invaluable.

Interests

I like getting to know people, learning about different points of views of the strange world we live in.
I love dancing salsa, as the music can make you connect very quickly with somebody, and I enjoy it a lot.
Bodyweight training and bouldering are challenges against the self, and I like challenges and give my all to overcome them!
I also like watching movies, going out with friends, playing chess, table tennis and billiards... but be aware, I'm terrible at them!
I would like reading more, and I'm trying to, but that's still quite a rare activity for me :)
