Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

They say that whoever is determined to travel is inspired by a majestic understanding of life and has a strong desire to accumulate knowledge. Each of us is a traveller. Travelling is rooted in human nature. I have travelled as much as I could, making the most of the few days off I had as an employee in various multinational corporations I worked for, or as coordinator of the many projects I have run in recent years. I haven’t seen many places, but I have had quite a few adventurous experiences. They all showed me how easy it is to dare to be free, to dare to be independent. That is why I founded Filos Group in 2010 and I have been involved in various projects that nurtured me and, in turn, have nurtured others – I hope so, at least. Filos Group was founded as a result of a serious interest in culture. I just wanted to provide a professional framework for the cultural activities I organize: book editing, special events, graphic creation and design, photography or photo trips. My short trips have been the natural consequence of my many readings on some of the greatest civilizations or world religions. My journeys, my experiences, as well as my writings reflect my own quests. I do wish to go on this way. A trip may not represent the real purpose of one’s life, yet it is a wonderful symbol of coming to terms with our own soul.
