About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live my dreams!

ABOUT ME

I´m social and love being amongst people. I like to meet new people, learn to know them, about their life, about their experiences and about their culture.

I find it easy to come in contact with other and have a great interest in people generally because when you interact with other you learn a lot about yourself and grow as a human.

I´m open, open minded and like diversity so people use to feel convenient and accepted in my company.

I´m active and curious, I like to try new things and also to discover new places I never have been visiting.

I´m creative and targeted and I use to think nothing is impossible if you just try.

PHILOSOPHY

Nothing is impossible if you try!

Don´t dream your life - live your dreams!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I friend of mine told me about it and I thought it was a great idea so I signed up and I have never regret it, it is really a great way of meeting new people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience of couchsurfing was in Mallorca It was great because we were several surfers at the same host so we could exchange experiences and do things together.

I have also hosted guys from Australia, Italy and Germany. It has been really nice to have them here, show them around, do things together and hear from them about there trips, there experiences, their culture and idea about life.

It´s like the world are getting smaller with couchsurfing, I´m able to meet people from other contries without travelling.

Interests

First my family, my 5 children. They are the most important in my life and really make my life worth living and give me a reason to fight when things feels tough.

My great passion is travelling, because I love to se and discover new things and meet new people in order to learn and develop.

I spend my time in being with my family and friends. I also train a lot, specially running out in the nature, it is ralaxing and gives energy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had been on holiday with the children, travelling around for 9 weeks in Europe with the caravan and suddenly the caravan broke done in Croatia. The engineering couldn´t fix it and the insurencecompany didn´t help us. Me and the children together build our own roofrack with ironpins, a stage and a lots of straps. We needed to through away some things but our most important stuff we brought with us on the roof.It is a wonderful memory because we really fought together and it mad us feel like we were invincible, we could fix everything by our self, jus because we did it together. And when we reach home 3500 km later we was as proud as if we had climbed Himalaya.
