About Me
CURRENT MISSION
It is what it is.
ABOUT ME
I am an English teacher who loves to travel around the world and get to know different cultures, experience different lifestyles, get out of my comfort zone, really. I love dogs, shopping, clubbing and eating well. My friends say that I'm a ''BoBo'' or Bourgeois-bohème. I couldn't have described myself any better! I don't need a reason to fly to France; Paris is my second home!
Sharing life and travel experiences is what made me register on CouchSurfing and I have no regrets at all!
PHILOSOPHY
Don't count the days, make the days count, mate! It is what it is!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Touring my guests around town as much as I can and showing them the 'local' spots is how I participate on CS as well as introducing them to our local cuisine either by eating out or cooking at home.
