Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Im in Couchsurfing because of two things:
- Meeting local people is one of the best parts of travelling. They are the ones who show you the difference between your culture and theirs, and the best places in a town usually dont appear on guides and you only get there through locals. Couchsurfing is a great great chance to get this. Not only you get to meet locals, you get to know how they live in their homes!
- Im not going to lie, travelling cheap is also a good point about couch surfing. Its not about saving money when travelling, its about beeing able to travel more with the same money!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have visited a group of 42 virgin islands in Thailand, and I have played with Elephants we found on a river while doing a trekking through the jungle.
I have done a road trip through Italy, 8 cities in 10 days!
I have done the walk of Santiago, twice. I really really recommend it!
I have visited the Niagara Falls.
I have been a camp counselour in YMCA camps in the United States, for three summers.
I have been in a jacuzzi at 35 degrees, in the outside, while the temperature was at -15 degrees outside the jacuzzi and full of snow!

Teach, Learn, Share

Im a medicine student, which means I spend a really huge ammount of time studying (really, mort of my day most of the days). I love what I study, learning about human body and how to heal it, but it gets very tough some times. Every time I get a few days off I try to spend my time travelling, as I think it is the greater thing someone can do to grow as a person.
All the time Im not studyng, I like spending my free time reading, painting or swimming, and, of course, hanging out with friends! I also watch several tv shows and movies-

What I Can Share with Hosts
