Hi there awesome people!

Alex / 20 / College Student / Greece

I've included a bunch of the things that interest and excite me in the "My Interests" section, but primarily, I love meeting new people and exploring alternative lifestyles and cultures and I really want to hear as many stories as I can and meet as many different approaches to life as possible throughout my young years.

To be honest, I am still in the process of finding myself and what really fulfills me and I am nowhere near the perfect version of myself. So I am really open to different stimuli, and there's no better way to getting those than travelling I feel. That's why right now that is my biggest want and priority.

One thing I know for sure though is that I feel huge amounts of compassion and love towards non-human animals. That is why in the summer of 2016 I turned vegan and I'm never going back. Cruelty-free living is now part of my identity. So if you are vegan yourself or would be interested in learning more about the vegan lifestyle, I would be more than glad to meet you and discuss this! Ever since I transitioned I also LOVE cooking, so hosting me could be interesting in that sense too. Wink wink. Haha

For some more of my interests, again go ahead and check the tags!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sharing a taxi with a Turkish guy (hi Chacha!) on a strike day, I first heard of Couchsurfing and I honestly felt like I found the meaning of life. Haha

Honestly, this site pretty much sums up all I want from life. Travelling on a budget and getting to meet foreign people and cultures from the inside, and not just superficially.

Sadly, I've had the chance to do very little traveling so far. But I am absolutely planning to change that.

And it's so exciting!

Unfortunately, I am not living in my own house right now so I'm not able to host myself, but I would love to at some point.
