About Me

I finished my studies 5 years ago and since then I live kind of nomadic life.
During the summer season I work as a tour guide in Norway. For the rest of the year, I’m a “Catch me if you can” trying to explore as much as possible 😅🤣.
I consider myself being a tolerant and openminded person. I try to be direct, honest and not to judge people.
One of my highest values is freedom, I love the nature, music and deep conversations :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I consider it being a great the combination of travelling, getting to know the local culture and interesting people.
Couchsurfing means for me creating meaningful connections, deep conversations and getting to know the culture from the inside.

I could write a book about my CS stories and I swear that you can't get a better experience when travelling than a CS one - literally, every single time it's memorable :D...
Sometimes can be tiring, but in the end, it's always worth it :))!!

Interests

I try to be positive minded about life, even though it's not always easy.
My hobbies are: learning new languages, volunteering, sport (dancing - latin dances, climbing, biking, running, hiking), challenging myself, listening to podcasts and music.

I love travelling and doing unexpected and spontaneous planes, and activities where you can meet new people, like hitchhiking and backpacking for example :).
Deep talks about life are something I really love - they're always better with a glass of wine in a nice viewpoint overlooking a sunset ;).

Music, Movies, and Books

I like music in general, but mostly I listen to pop, latino and indie.
Usually if you ask me if I've seen a movie (any movie), the answer will be no :D... Somehow I prefer series: f.e. Breaking Bad, HIMYM, Better call Saul, Gilmore girls, Big Bang Theory, etc (the classic ones)
