About Me

After a very long hiatus, I have decided to be my backpacker self again. I am currently travelling through Spain and Portugal, exploring the beautiful terrains, tasting the lovely food and meeting interesting people. Since there is so much to see, I rely on the people I meet for recommendations rather than Google (or chatGPT). So, if you like my profile but don't have a space for me, please do recommend your favorite place to visit, places to eat, and things to do :-)

I am a very adaptive person, not very clear on the purpose of life, the universe, and everything, so I try to be humble, empathetic, and curious to everyone I meet. While sometimes I like my alone time, my curiosity often leads me to extract exciting conversations out of even dull moments.

I am very independent, so while you host me, I will be no more a guest than respecting your privacy and your stuff. I will offer to cook, clean, or do whatever is needed to be an easy guest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I recently met a fellow couchsurfer and he reminded me of how fascinating are those people who are on it. There are vibes and values that made me sign up in the first place.
If you have time, I'd love to meet another couchersurfer for a coffee, beer and explore the city

Having said that, I'd love to be hosted. Having recently becoming a student again, I'd love to save again every opportunity I can get,

Interests

My interests are wide and many. I really like the quote that you are a collection of people you've met and places you've been. My interests have evolved in a similar way.
Anything outdoor, anything live, anything non-electro.
