About Me

I love to travel and getting to know other cultures, people and different perspectives and angles of life. They say a political scientist is a photographer without a camera; well, I love to observe quietly and taking mental pictures of everything!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes." - Marcel Proust

You can find landscapes and cities everywhere, but the experience of sharing it with local people or couchsurfers always makes you discover new forms to enjoy them in a unique way!
