Overview
About Me
I am the happiest when I am surrounded by fun-loving, passionate and open-minded people. If I could spend the rest of my life traveling and learning, I would.
I believe every culture in the world can teach you lessons that will make you a better person. Every time I travel I always return home feeling grateful that I was able to experience how ppl live elsewhere. Traveling inspires me.
Work to live, don't live to work.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
There is no doubt in my mind that the best way to learn about a city or culture is meeting locals. Not only can you exchange ideas or philosophies but they can recommend places that will not appear on a tourist guide. Learning about cultures from the inside out is what appeals to me. Sharing fun moments with people that live thousands of miles away is amazing. Connecting with people from around the world and forming friendships is what I live for.
