Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Planning my new adventure in Sweden
ABOUT ME
Well, I just finished my degree in Translation and Interpreting about a month ago. I got a scholarship from the Svenska Institutet to study in Sweden for 4 months. After that, I hope to find a job there and stay until next summer at least. That would be perfect.
About me, I am a quite easy-going and outgoing guy who likes to talk about almost everything (I have to admit that is not the case with football, though). I love travelling and meeting new people as well as new cultures.
I am a very patient, tidy, open-minded and considerate person. Sometimes too diplomatic and quiet, but it depends on the day. I like to be alone when I need it, but I love been surrounded by people. I love chatting while drinking a coffe or a wine with a few friends.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I only had the chance twice, cause it was my last year at uni so I had lots od things to do and not much time. But I loved the experience and it was very interesting, we talked about different points of view about travelling and the purposes of it. Moreover, I think that Couchsurfing is an excellent idea and you can find a lot of nice people.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
As I said the two guys I hosted, but I never stayed at someone else's house. I am looking forward to it.
Interests
Music and languages above everything. I also love taking long walks. I love puzzles, my infinite patience defeats them always. I like swimming and hiking and I also spend a lot of time reading.
I've playing the clarinet for 12 years and music is a big part of my life. When I travel I always carry a musical instrument with me. If it's possible I meet with friends to jam and make some music.
For almost three years I have been in a choir and I discovered that I love to sing as well. So if anyone is willing to improvise some polyphony I am totally game.
