I'm Alonso. I like music, travelling, interesting conversations, reading, beer, creative writing, meeting new people and good food. I have been living and studying in the Czech Republic for more than 5 years. I know Prague very well.

I'm a guy with a calm lifestyle. My hobbies are reading, playing acoustic guitar and ukulele.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I want to meet new people from other countries, listen to their stories, share new experiences, travel. I think I can gain valuable knowledge and discover more about the world this way.
