About Me

CURRENT MISSION

California Roadtrip in May 2016 :)

ABOUT ME

I started travelling while I was at university, studying abroad a couple of times. After graduating I didn't stay in my city for much longer and worked in different countries, taking great advantage of the possibilities of travelling while living abroad. Now I have been in the United States for almost nine months, and as my time here is coming to an end, the greater is the need to see as much as I can in these couple of months.
I'm curious, easy-going, laid-back and uncomplicated .... have lots to share and a great more deal to learn.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My first ever Couchsurfing experience was in the Oktoberfest in Munich, where I stayed in a big house crowded with couchsurfers and a great host. Since then I've been couchsurfing in Europe (both as a host and guest) and especially in the U.S.
Couchsurfing has allowed me to travel to so many places and meet such wonderful people that it only makes sense to keep doing it!

Interests

I love travelling, meeting people, learning languages and other cultures. I also like sports; basketball, biking, hiking, snowboarding (trying to learn how to surf :P) and really enjoy being in the nature. I love food and cooking :) and of course hanging out with friends, BEER, and late night discussions on current issues, politics, life....

Music, Movies, and Books

Way too many to be able to pick. But I do love reading, watching a movie on a rainy day and going to concerts.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Since I have memory my parents have always had a caravan and every summer we used to travel around Europa for a few weeks. I have great memories from that time and it definitely taught me more than any school book. Some wonder why am I a traveller... I blame them!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a language freak so.. that! I can show you a few words in Esperanto and I'm always happy to practice any of the languages I know or learn some of the ones I know nothing about.

Also love cooking....always happy to cook, try new recipes and taste new food!
