About Me

CURRENT MISSION

being the best possible me

ABOUT ME

I moved to Canada in February to live with a host family in Kimberley, BC. I've been here for more than six months now and I still love it. Can't wait for the winter as I am a passionate snowboarder and I love to play hockey too. I pretty much enjoy any activity that can be done outdoors and I'm willing to give everything a try. I am outgoing and I like to laugh a lot. Just to warn you, I speak sarcasm fluently. I enjoy being around lots of people but I do need some alone time too. I've met great people while traveling and I want to give something back to the traveling community. As soon as we are out of our comfort zone (as in away from home) we all need a little help and some genuine people.

PHILOSOPHY

The mind is the limit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now my participation is restricted to surfing and meeting up with travelers since I can't host anyone here. As soon as I go back to my hometown or get my own place here I'll be back in the hosting business.

Interests

snowboarding. hiking. cooking. reading. writing (my blog is my baby). movies. dancing. ice hockey. all kinds of medical stuff (physiotherapy, training, nutrition,...). gym. different cultures. meeting new people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I read any book as long as it has lots of pages. Novels to cook books. FBI thrillers to Fifty Shades of Grey. But my all time favorite is Tolkien. He's a genius and I read all of his books.

I like music that makes me want to dance. That could be hip hop, country, r&b, house, rock,...

I like to watch funny movies or TV shows. I'm totally not into horror movies, they give me nightmares.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Played hockey on a backyard rink in Canada. doesn't sound amazing to you? it's the one thing I've always wanted to do and I finally crossed it off my bucket list.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you almost anything about the human body, injuries and training. The thing I'd like to learn more about is nutrition. I also like to try any kind of sports (most recent sports I tried: yoga, wakeboarding, baseball).
