Overview
About Me
Nothing to say in particular... I just wish I met people around the world to share experiences, to establish connections, and I like to help people wherever I am, whenever I can, and doing my best. Loneliness ----> no thanks. I love the cities but I also love nature too.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I could say because of the fact I am not spending some money on expensive hotels. But I find it more interesting to meet people inside their homes and maybe feel myself home too rather than spending some time in an unidentified, cold, blank hotel.
