Informazioni generali
Chi sono
**I am new to the platform and still meeting CS friends and so getting reviews along the way :)**
Hi! :)
I speak español, français, English, и српски/хрватски
Learning Català & України
Sportsman, kinesiologist and Physical Therapy student in Ottawa who loves the outdoors, dancing, and deep conversations.
As a jack of all trades I have a little bit of knowledge in everything. I'm passionate about learning about new cultures, languages, and experiences. I am currently on a mission to dive into the Slavic world.
I hope to make friends along my journey so that I can reciprocate the kindness still alive in the world. I will show my CS friends the wonders of Canada, where I live now :)
I'm a very honest person and down to earth. I will give you my opinion if you ask for it or listen carefully when you speak (I work with kids so I'm a very good listener).
I want to explore the world as a student so I'm looking for ways to experience as much as possible with only my backpack.
Let's chat!

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing
I'm on CS because it's a great initiative built on mutual trust, discovery of the world and people, as well as proof of humanity. I hope to host more often.
I am new on the platform but hope to make some lasting friendships, exchange culture, and languages, and to reciprocate the CS values and show people around Ottawa and Canada when I can.
Interessi
As a physical activity researcher and sport sciences student I am passionate about using exercise and active lifestyles to improve the quality of life. I am also very good with my hands in massage and sport therapy (not the fun massage kind but the one that takes pain away), hoping to become the best physical therapist in at least one half of the world.
I am a history geek and love integrating culture, food, and languages all into the rich history of each culture as I piece it together. It's amazing how one can grow up differently but still be in the same world.
I am passionate about subjects that have touched my life and volunteer profusely for them.
I am a dancer by nationality but always improving and love to learn new dances along the way!!!
Finally I'm on a growth journey and meditation has helped me heal some wounds and shaped my focus and perspectives.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto
I am still looking for more! I truly love water sports and so I have paddle-boarded, sailed, and dived in the Atlantic, Baltic, Mediterranean, and Caribbean.
I have explored a little bit of my home country but have so much more left! Come join me!
Insegna, impara, condividi
Keen learner and can share that passion with some cool facts/knowledge to hopefully get you hooked on the topic as well! I can share with you my academic, personal, and cultural knowledge although it may still be in its beginning stages.
I love sharing ideas, although you may not like me because I am terrible memory for quoting things!
I hope to share most importantly quality time and use that opportunity to learn about what life means for you!
Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa
I can offer a good conversation, dance, and hopefully leave you with some food for thought if you're into thinking hard! I have read a wide range of topics leaving me with an open view of the world!
I think I can also share boundless kindness as it has been gifted to me at some hard times. We all need to smile everyday! :)
