I would like to start by saying that I'm the kind of person who is constantly observing, analyzing, and reflecting on everything around me. I seek growth and expansion.
I want to experience couchsurfing because I value connecting with people. I believe everybody has something to offer and I’m always open to learning and sharing. What I appreciate the most about traveling are the connections that I’ve made and the many new things I’ve learned about the world and myself.
I’ve been working as a teacher for most of my life. These experiences have shaped me to become an empathetic, supportive and proactive person.
I’m very passionate about nature, photography, filmmaking, writing and eager to learn more about psychology and sustainability.
What inspires me to travel is getting to hear people's stories, connecting with them and with nature. I'm an outdoorsy person but also appreciate the silence and rest.
My purpose in life is to experience this world as much as I can. I want to contribute to a society that values care and compassion. I hope to find love and peace in anything I set my mind to.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because I appreciate human connection, I love listen to what people have to say, I always learn so much from it. Besides that, I think it’s so much better to explore a new place from a local perspective, the experience is definetly more rewarding.
