About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Life is too short... you know that, right?

ABOUT ME

I'm a fantastic person (what else can I say?)

PHILOSOPHY

I used to have a good job, working 10 hours a day, with a nice apartament by the beach, one of those big cars and the kind of life I always wanted to have but something was wrong, something wasn't working well... I decided to break up with my old life and start the trip that will change my life and mind forever. Now I ride my bike or I take the bus and the beach is not quite near to my house but I'm happier... I dont know where my life is going but definetly I'm happier and that's the important... life is too short to be unhappy... just looking for my way!!
Perhaps couchsurfing is going to help me find it...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

as I love travelling and you never know when you can need a friendly hand, I would love to colaborate with other travellers around the world offering my house and my hospitality to help them the way they can need.
and the only one other thing in life better than travelling is meeting people so...

Interests

Everything has an interesting side... I
love Yoga and some sports, mountain biking, rock climbing, snowboarding. I also like to party (a little) and a couch with movies... as everyone else I love music, modern art and design and I can't find enough hours a day to do everything that I want to do...
