About Me

I am an extrovert but chill guy who is currently living in Munich (Germany), who loves travelling, meeting new people and, more specifically, listening and learning from other people experiences.

I am deeply interested in getting to know other people life stories, because I do belive that every person has something to teach you. That's my real passion behind meeting new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have always wanted to try this platform, because is a great way of meeting new people and, what's more, to enjoy the place your're visiting from a more local perspective. I am a person who's always trying to get the most of every place I visit and what fascinates me is to try to get a glimpse on the local live while imagining how are the real lives of the locals there.

Interests

Travelling, languages (I believe learning a new language is a way to discover a new piece of the world that have been unknown for you), literature, geopolitics and sport are my main interests.

As you can also see from the pictures, enjoying nature is one of my favorite things to do. That's why I'm making the most of my stay in Ireland to go hiking and discovering the natural beauties of this island.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading (``People who don't read just live one life but...people who read live multiple ones ;) ) and lately I am spending quite a lot of time listening to music.

I wouldn't know what to say about favorite books, because I have many that have left an impact on me throughout the years. Regarding genres, I always loved fantasy books but more recently I'm more focused on essays and good novels.

As for music, I do like several genres, from hip-hop, R&B, jazz to pop, indie, afro music, brazilian funk and reggaeton (some, not all). I always choose what to listen to depending on my mood.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Waking up on a Saturday morning and go cycling around Untersee in beautiful idylic Konstanz (Germany).

Trying to stand up on a highline in Basque Country with my best pal.

Working as a volunteer translator for different NGOs dealing with the current migrant crisis going on in the US-Mexico border.

Teach, Learn, Share

My current goal is keep improving my foreing language skills + trying to make some impact in my close circle in order to make the world a better place to live in.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A lot of stories and anecdotes, good company and maybe a friendship :)
