Overview
About Me
I consider myself a friendly and very open-minded person, I'm excited to meet interesting people and love to make conversation on all kind of topics to get a different perspective on them. I'm curious, open and tend to adapt easily to every situation.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Ever since I was little I had the opportunity to travel a lot. My trips where mostly low-cost oriented, I tend to avoid crowded tourist areas and prefer to visit small towns and natural landscapes. I think that it allows a curious traveller like me to fully experience the land, with its people and its culture.
I didn't have many experiences with couchsurfing yet, but the few I had were very positive. What I most like about couchsurfing is that it puts you in contact with like-minded people from all over the world, and the amount of things we can learn from each other, the experiences we make and the things we can share is truly amazing.
Interests
Many of my interests have changed a lot during the years, because of my priorities I had to leave behind many things I liked. What was most persistent throughout my life is my love for nature (mountains in particular) and an unexplicable urge to travel.
And if you play chess, I would love to have a game with you :)

Music, Movies, and Books
I've surely seen a lot of good Movies, but I can never recall their names.
I love reading, talking about books and getting suggestions.
