About Me

ABOUT ME

Outgoing person. I love to travel and have been traveling for quite some time, especially during my student days before. I've met tons of people from different countries all over Europe and beyond. Open minded and curious. I love good books, movies and music. I also do sports in my free time. I like to try new things, as well as be involved in different things. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. - Mark Twain

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm not new here, but I have limited Couchsurfing experience. Previously I was part of this student organization called ESTIEM (European STudents of Industrial Engineering and Management) so I'm quite familiar with the concept of Couchsurfing because I've hosted a lot of people via this organization. And I've become a really great city tour guide! :D
