ABOUT ME

I'm an easygoing person, I'm very open and direct. I enjoy traveling, getting to know local people and taking tons of pictures.

As "a berliner" I enjoy electronic music a lot.

PHILOSOPHY

Nothing is impossible, it's all up to you.

You just need to go out and do what it feels right to do, and don't let prejudices stop you from doing what you think is right for you.

I work on what I'm really passionate about, like if money didn't matter, because that's what drives me.

I'm not a big fan of traditional education. I believe in what Ken Robinson says (we need a revolution in education).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had a great experience being a surfer in multiple cities around the world. I've also traveled with, partied, and hosted people I've met in Couchsurfing.

Since 2012 that I love the community!

Interests

I like computers and Photography.
I want to travel a lot to take more and better pictures :)

You can see some of my pictures in my website: https://eljojo.life

If you're into computers: I've been developing with Ruby and Ruby on Rails since 2012 and it was love at first sight! I also like linux, home automation, arduinos and the Go programming language.
