I'm addicted to salsa :-) and love to dance it in any new city I'm in! Apart from that, I think I'm a pretty friendly, fun person to hang out with and am very open-minded, always trying to be open to new opportunities. I try to stay pretty active and really like trying any new sports activities. I'm not always 100% outgoing but enjoy getting to know people one on one. When I travel, I like to stay in one place for a few weeks or months at a time, getting to know the place and making a couple of friends. I love hearing other people's stories and am a good listener (in my opinion, anyway)!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was a little too shy to consider it until now, but I realise all my favourite moments while travelling have been spontaneous encounters with people in their day-to-day lives, and that this is what CouchSurfing offers. It also seems like a more personal alternative to hostels, so I want to give it a try!
