About Me

An expert at picking four-leaf clovers :) (kinda)
I'm a very quiet person but I do like partying and going out.
after high school I did a gap year and travelled around Brazil (Amazonas only love).
I enjoy learning, mostly about cultures, history and languages, and tha's why I'm studying arabic in Geneva.
I also love spending time in the nature, especially in the mountains, and hitchhiking my way around the world. I like to think of myself as a person who can adapt easily to their surroundings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently, I sadly can't host anyone cause I'm still living with my family, but when I start university I'll start hosting for sure... Since I'm planning on travelling during my gap year, I hope CS will give me the opportunity to meet the locals and get to know the reality of the place I'm in in a much better way.
Update: I'm now in university but we're not allowed to have people over for the night so yeah haha
