ABOUT ME

Bonjour a tout (*.*)!!!

I am a handful Mum, Vietnamese-born, Italy and France Lover, fusion of diffirent cultures, presents of all lessons and experience that I've gained from lost and found while hitting the roads paying visits of my life!

I am spontaneous! And I am silly. Silly enough to think that everyone could swim when i was 7 years old and i jumped into the water without fear....Consequently, i almost die and i'm still in fear of water despite of few swimming course being taken!!! Well, i am still making so many mistakes in life like that ;)

Nowadays, I don't really check in the website so much so if you wanna drop me a line for a meet-up, surf with me, you probably address me in Facebook. You could find me as Maï Holmberg :D

I travel like Rolf Potts !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend introduced me this website. It has been an addict ever since:- I have hosted bunches of people, shared our stories and cried on their shoulders like i've found my long lasting friends.- I've been given couches, beds in many different places in the world and found my deepest intimacies in here as well as seen how miracle of love being displayed in most remote places..- I've been inspired, learnt so much from people i've been meeting along my way-More to come...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
