Overview
About Me
My goal is to travel more and more every year (at least once or twice a year) and not letting a lack of money keeping me back!
Other personal goals: learning to cook, doing outdoorsy activities and finish my bachelor (and maybe keeping on studying).
Interests: bicycling, watching movies, hiking, cooking.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I haven't tried couch surfing yet, but I heard a lot of different stories from my friends. What I expect is to meet nice people who can give me a taste of what it really is to live there, wherever « there » is.
But I also have to say that I enjoy spending some time alone; plus, I found that wandering around a new place is the best way to discover a city.
But, if you're willing to, I would love to have a beer or a cup of wine, or sharing a good meal with you (my treat).
I don't have any couch surfing experience, but I have WWOOFed several times around New Zealand and California. So basically, I would work on a farm or in a hostel in exchange of a bed and some food. I have also used Airbnb a lot traveling through California, and I loved it!
I really enjoyed sharing a room with other travellers: some of them became real friends and we kept on travelling together afterwards. I also really enjoyed spending time with a Christian family, because our ways of living were extremely different.
Interests
Hiking, camping, bicycling, traveling, wandering around in a not-yet-discovered city, shopping, cooking, drinking a good coffee, trying a new beer, sharing a good meal, watching a movie / TV show. And animals! I love every animal.

Music, Movies, and Books
I'm a huge fan of old Disney movies. I'd say that my favourite one is Peter Pan (also, maybe Alice in Wonderland).
Also a fan of Game of Thrones, How I met your mother, Walking Dead, The Office.
Lately, I’ve started watching Pokemon again (I can’t help it; when I was 11, I would wake up at 6 to watch it twice).
I also love Wes Anderson.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In New Zealand, the most amazing thing that I have done is swimming in the open ocean with wild dolphins. It was completely crazy. There were about 500 dolphins swimming everywhere around us, that were playing with us. They pretended to rush at us and they would swerve at the last minute. When I couldn’t see them anymore from underneath the water, I sang in my snorkel and they showed up again. It was amazing!
