About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Go where no man has gone before.

ABOUT ME

I'm a thinker, quite introverted, but don't get me wrong -“ I love to meet new people, make them laugh, share experiences and talk for hours. I like me some good party too! I just need my time to think sometimes. When travelling, I usually find people and their stories more interesting than locations. I like natural sciences, but I also need time to be creative and express myself. I'm always trying to be a good friend who won't let you down.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything is interesting if you go into it deeply enough.
If you want to change something, start with yourself.
Leave things better than you found them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I don't have any place to share at the moment, but I'm looking forward to hosting some people when I get one!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was surfing my first couch when I arrived to Groningen for my Erasmus study and I think it was the best thing I could possibly do. My lovely host and his friends showed me the city, took me with them to a festival, answered all my delicate questions. We became good friends and we see each other regularly.
