About Me

I'm in a phase of my life where I want to meet and learn the biggest number of people from different countries and cultures, and at the same time find out more about myself.

I am open minded (#1 rule is 'Respect above everything') and I am willing to experience things out of my comfort zone.

I'm very independent, I'm not looking for free travel guide, but I do expect some to share experiences with my host. I love to talk about everything, from politics and religion to movies, video games, sports (mainly football).

Right now my main job is to hike the most I can and go to as many countries I can before my money is over. Before I use to be a software developer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on CS because I believe it is the best way to know locals, their habits, their culture, etc. and save money at the same time. Also I'm sure I'll meet very interesting people that will aggregate thing in my life and help me on my way to become a better person.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

Learning new things is one of my hobbies. So I'll be glad to learn anything you are able to teach.
I can teach you origami (Japanese paper folding technique), some languages, my life philosophy, IT stuff, and maybe more secret things in case you prove yourself worthy.
I'm alway open to share life experiences. Trip advices are alway nice too.

I try to be as warm and outgoing as I can, so I'm open to share everything not too personal with you.
