About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel, meet people, cultures, see it all!

ABOUT ME

Since little, I have always been accustomed to traveling: coming my parents (also very well travelled) from different countries all my life I have been moving from Spain to England, and also within Spain from Madrid to Coruna. And I got to like all the movement :) Actually the real turning point in my life was probably -as for many- an Erasmus stay in Ancona, Italy. Next followed some months in Corfu, Greece; after a few years in Brussels, Belgium; and for the last year it has been Lyon, France. After 7 months traveling in South America and having some great CS experiences, I am back in France even more excited and into the movement!I LOVE traveling, and I do so as soon as I can (I have visited more or less 50 countries, and am far from satisfied!) and I believe Coach Surfing can take my passion even further

PHILOSOPHY

Be yourself, follow your dreams! Don't wish to do things, just do them :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Before my trip in Southamerica I have hosted some people, and during the voyage we had amazing hosts ourselves, so we have tried it all for the moment - and love it! We also couchsurfed a bit in South East Asia during our 5 months backpacking there

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

What kinds of experiences have you had through CouchSurfing?
During our trip in SA, we had some AMAZING hosts and great moments that I will always remember, the hospitality and warmth of the people is incredible and makes me want to get better :DWe have been picked up from the bus station in Campogrande and attented an amazing family birthday party by our Brazilian super hosts, practised Yogalates and visited a Nespresso factory in Jardin, loved Paraguay thanks to the best hosts the country can hold, enjoyed the company of an adorable family in Medellin, and a long etcetera. We consider all the hosts we have had our friends!

Iceland is just amazing! The Balkans are another region I just love, and I can't ever say enough good things about South America, the sheer enormity, beauty and magnificence or the region can leave you speechless...Its traveling to these kind of places where nature is still so powerful and beautiful where you can find the beauty and peace that this world has to offer
