PHILOSOPHY

Backpackers of the world, unite!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is the perfect idea for people that don't few like travelling the "conventional way", having always that tourist sensation in the places you go. Using this network, you can actually live like a dweller from the place you are visiting for a few days. Staying in a real house, going to the unusual places a tourist would go, getting to know people that live there...for me is great! I also really like the idea of travellers giving each other a hand and helping them, even not knowing the person yet. This trust thing between backpackers is really nice.

Interests

My interests includes literature, cinema, music, art and humanities. Actually, this is why I would like to learn german, because they are really relevant in these fields. I find very interesting to know new places and people from others cultures, and talk with them about it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I would say that, so far in my life, my trip to Europe was the most amazing thing I have ever done. Living by yourself away from home, going from place to place without a certain destination, and getting to see how things are in another country can be very constructive. However, my ideas about what this experience was to me are a little bit too long to explain here.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am always willing to learn more about travelling, and whatever people can say about life where they live. Also, maybe learning how to cook some tradicional (and easy) meals from the places I visit would not be a bad idea.
