About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to reanimate my couchsurfing spirit! :-)

ABOUT ME

I am passionate about music and I love dancing to all different kinds of sounds. I also love languages and am fascinated by how we use them and how we are able to learn new ones. I would describe myself as a very curious person and I enjoy getting to know new ideas and perspectives on life.
