Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As an artist, I'm constantly looking for inspiration and traveling provides a lot of that. I love meeting new people and have a passionate urge to see the world.

I want to be a host one day, when I have the means.

Interests

I'm currently studying photography and painting. Besides art, I love listening to music and going to concerts.
