I think be happy is the most important thing in the world, and have a lot of friends it´s part of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can host people and be a surfer when I am travelling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In 2007-2008 I traveled across 12 countries in Latin America using Hospitality Club and a few members of Couchsurfing, and it was a marvelous experience. I want to stay with native people because yoy can know a lot of the local culture.

Interests

The human and social relations produced a strange fascination for me, and investigate the mysteries of the human existence in general, or try to understand the world we live. I like good conversation, listening and telling stories, guitars, photography, literature, cinema, countryside, politics, media, environment, mithology, football, food, sleep, walking, travel, etc...
