About Me

Quite hard to define (and sell) yourself with words.

I worked for more then 20 years without interruptions and at the moment I am looking what to do with the rest of the time (I hope) I have left.

I am quiet but I love great conversations.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am just new here and want to try a new experience (at least for me...).

Interests

I love to read, specially books that hit me like a hammer. Eating and trying new foods are to one of the parts I love the most of traveling
