About Me

I'm a vivid colloquist who enjoys good food almost as much as good company. I can take care of myself, but love to take care of others as well. Sometimes I grow quiet, worrying about everything that's wrong with the world or myself, contemplating how to make things better - and sometimes I even come up with solutions (I'd like to hear your opinion about). I'm always looking for ways to broaden my horizon and challenge my perspective. So ... all in all I'm a normal human being. Just like you, I bet.

My values for 2018: Acceptance, Spontaneousness, Self-Love, Mindfulness, Empathy, Freedom, Justice, Humour, Passion, Loyalty, Compassion, Candour, Tolerance, Knowledge and Wisdom.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Though I always had a pretty chill attitude on the outside, I've actually been under pressure all my life. Always working or following some "plan", reserving "the real life" for later.

As a kid, amazed by the sheer size of the world and all there was to explore, I wanted to be an adventurer. One day, not too long ago, I realized that I have been denying myself to explore the world, getting to know different cultures, challenging myself and growing in the process. Always waiting for the right time, the right set of mind, the right amount of money on my bank account or the right partner to travel with. All kinds of excuses never to leave my comfort zone.

Getting to know new people and places, being spontaneous and adventurous, those are the things that really make me happy. And I can imagine no better place than this platform right here to follow the call to adventure.
