I am a mindful, respectful, and very responsible person. I like to keep my place neat and be careful with things and I am serious, although that does not mean I can't relax and have a good time. I love to travel and have been to 12 different countries, though wasn't using Couchsurfing when I visited these countries, and I love to meet people from different parts of the world and learn about their cultures. Also, I can enjoy pretty much anything. For example, I like cooking together with friends or cooking for them as I love to cook. I like to exercise or play sports (volleyball, biking, swimming, etc.), read, watch good movies, go out for dinner and dancing, socialize with friends, and have interesting conversation, although I can be silly and laugh at silly things sometimes. Finally, I love animals, especially dogs :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I have heard about it from several friends and people, and I like the concept of connecting with people from different backgrounds and cultures. I am also looking to be hosted and meeting people from different cities around the world and socializing or sharing time and doing something fun with them. I also like the idea of going to events organized by Couchsurfers and organizing events. Finally, I think I would like to host guests as a way to meet people from other countries/cities, although I want to wait a little on doing this as I am new to Couchsurfing, and I would like to wait a little before deciding to host.
