I'm Maria, from Barcelona, Spain. I left home when I was 20-21 and that was the best decision I could ever make. I went to Australia and I fell in love with the place that much that I ended up living there 2.5 years. I had an amazing time, I met beautiful people from all over the world, places and great experiences to remember!

One of the things I started doing in Australia was handpoke tattoos (dot by dot handmade), something that I would never expected if my friend wouldn't have taught me. I just found out that I love it and I want to learn more and more.

While travelling, I have all the tattoos stuff with me so I can do some to the travellers that are keen on! I would say it is kind of a job or and exchange for something to win a little bit of money and keep on travelling.

In march 2015 I decided to start a new adventure and go travelling around the world by myself or with whoever wants to join me! It is such a great feeling! And I'm so keen on keep on moving on and meeting new people, countries and new experiences :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I met a young german girl in Penang, Malaysia, who was doing couchsurfing there and I ended up joining her and her host going all around the island, places, eating the local food... Was an unexpected and a very great experience! Right after that, I created my account on Couchsurfing. Love to have experiences with the locals ad meet new people. I'll keep on travelling with it as long as I can! :)

Interests

I love travelling, eating, taking pictures, drawing, relaxing, the nature, the beach, get lost in the streets (I'm not very good at maps..), and meeting new people and travellers :)
