ABOUT ME

Analytical, persistant, curious, outgoing and courteous. Not the party animal type, always interested in knowing different cultures and customs

PHILOSOPHY

Change is the only constant thing around us. We need to embrace it. I got a tattoo done with that word in Tibetan, to make sure I don't forget that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment, I can host from time to time in my hometown.
Some other times I am in Caracas and hosting is available depending on the fact that we have a free bedroom, so there's no permanent availability

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

At the moment, I only have friends who have done couchsurfing, I am just starting with this

Interests

Photography (digital and film), free software (as in freedom), learning new languages, visiting museums, social behaviour, learning from people, video games, walking, reading sci-fi books.
