I'm a fun and friendly person who likes to hang out with cool people and have a good time. I'm serious when I have to be but can chill out easily too. I live with my teenage son and work as both an instructional designer and a freelance translator. I have awoken the desire for travelling, meeting people and knowing places recently, so now I look for new experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe you can get anything you want as long as you really want it and do something in order to get it. I, better than many, know that nothing is heaven sent. If I want it, I'll definitely get it. You gotta make it happen :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I participate in Couchsurfing both as a surfer and as a host. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to make to any meetings yet, but hope I can soon.

I've already had my first experience as a surfer and it was great! Now, I'm looking forward to having my first one as a host!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love films that make you think and I can't spend a day without music. I love many kinds, so it always depends on my mood. I enjoy reading, although I think I should read a bit more and I'm always keen on discussing literature - and after a few drinks, I love to discuss politics!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling abroad for the first time in 2010 to England, my dreamland, on my own. I had always dreamt of going there, so one day I grabbed my backpack and just did it. It was amazing! I met great people there. Been there twice since then and will be coming back whenever I get a chance!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can't teach much about couch surfing yet, but hope to learn a lot!
