Living outside my country has been like taking the red Matrix pill, things will never be the same.

CURRENT MISSION

Experience the world and its people around and enrich my perspective of live. Recycle what I learn on the way to give back the world the best of myself.

PHILOSOPHY

Live with passion and turn your dreams into a reality. If you really want something you'll find a way. If you don't you'll find an excuse.

I'm the kind of person who is more interested in seeing that mysterious big chunk submerging underwater rather than the small tip showing off in the outside (of the iceberg). I generally apply that to people, and pretty much everything else.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Really like the concept of couchsurfing and the kind of people an vibe involved here.

Interests

Traveling and meeting new people and cultures, it makes me feel alive. I don't like to just do plain tourism, I rather like the full immersion experience and dive into the peculiarities of people and their culture in the places I visit. I like to stay for long if possible and like learning languages. Traveling in this way is the thing I enjoy the most.

I also like photography very much, nature, health, sports, and I take pleassure in having interesting conversations with open minded people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting a sequoia's forest in Santa Cruz, California. These great trees can reach more than 100 meters in height and 7 meters in width while they can live for more than 1800 years. Being in this forest with these giant trees is something amazing and it was a dream I had since I was a child ;)

I had also thought of going to Thailand many times but no friends wanted to go for this long trip. I had enough of this and one good night I opened the laptop and booked a flight to Bangkok departing next day, got my small backpack and off I went for two weeks, nothing else booked or researched. It was one of the greatest experiences ever and from it I unexpectedly discovered the joy of solo traveling and no-planning traveling..recommended!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Spanish , I'm a native qualified teacher of Spanish (although I haven't practiced much yet :P)
