About Me

About Me
I’m a curious and open-minded traveler who loves discovering new places through and with the people I meet along the way. Whether it’s sharing a meal, swapping stories, or going on spontaneous adventures, I truly enjoy the connections that travel brings.

What I Love
I feel most alive outdoors – hiking, cycling, by the water, or just wandering through a new city. I also have a deep appreciation for the spiritual side of life: I practice yoga and meditation regularly, which helps me stay grounded, present and balanced.

My Style
I’m super social, easygoing, and adaptable – I can enjoy peaceful mornings on a yoga mat just as much as dancing all night at a festival. I love balancing calm moments with wild adventures, and I’m always open to trying something new and sharing great memories with people from all walks of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, travel is not just about ticking destinations off a list – it’s about the human connections along the way. Couchsurfing feels like the perfect bridge between cultures: it’s a chance to share everyday moments, laugh over meals, swap travel tips, and see a place through the eyes of someone who calls it home.

I’m curious about how people live, what inspires them, and the little traditions or habits that make each culture unique. I believe hospitality is a two-way exchange – I get to learn from you, and hopefully, I can leave a little bit of my own culture, humor, and positivity with you in return.
