ABOUT ME

PHILOSOPHY

Living and learning!
Not enough people live their lives to the fullest. I believe that life is meant to be lived rather than wasted on hopeless dreams that can easily become amazing and inspiring realities! The best way to understand new and different cultures are to experience them first-hand, which is one of the things I like most about my travels abroad.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am friendly, outgoing and adventurous. If you host me there's a good chance I will pick your brain for information and interesting tidbits about your city or your country. I may also ask for you to join me and my friends in sightseeing, or at least for proper directions!

If you are visiting my city I'll be more than happy to meet up with you and help you feel like a local. I'm also willing to try anything at least once!
