About Me

Right now I am travelling through South America. I have already spent 6 months in Colombia, and am now travelling through Ecuador. I will also travel to Peru, Chile, Bolivia and Argentina. Afterwards, I will stay 3 weeks in Orlando, in the United States.
I am travelling alone with the purpose to be free, but also fully responsible alone by all decisions. As well as free in all my thoughts and taking a time out in order to plan a little bit more for my upcoming studies.

I was studying Philosophy for 3 semesters, doing the exams for the 4th as well to stay a student. So I am in my 4th semester, learning Spanish which would have been helpful for my studies besides - comparing Literature.
But apparently my plans have changed.
Instead, I am going to take up my original plans of studying Medicine, which will take me a little bit more preparation to enter, but will be perfectly worth it.

So I am just taking a time off right now, learning Spanish, and getting a little bit more organisation in my mind and calm in my heart.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Like I said I am learning Spanish and really interested in personal experience apart from the normal traveller experience you find in Hostels, although a lot have interesting stories as well, I feel better having conversations in Spanish.
And who doesn't love to travel cheap and meet interesting, open minded people as an side effect.
Right now I am asking myself, why wasn't I on Couchsurfing before!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelled a lot, did a lot, saw a lot, but frankly spoken had nothing that I would call amazing. But I am working on my way, to be able to do something, what I personally call amazing.
