About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Remembering what's important in life.

ABOUT ME

I'm very open-minded and always try to put myself in the position of others, to not judge anyone. I enjoy simple things, from the smell of a fruit to the smile of a stranger. I think beauty is everywhere and we just have to open our mind's eye to see it.
I know nowadays the world is pretty f*cked up but I'm SURE there are lots of amazing, beautiful people who strive to make it a better place.

PHILOSOPHY

Peace and love.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Never stop dreaming; limits are in one's mind.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

People. Languages. Exchaging with others. Learning something new everyday. Making people happy.

I want to be vegetarian. Haven't been able to, though...

I love salsa (old school), son cubano, bossa nova, jazz, electronic, classical, world music...but my heart is a rocker.
Books...these days,I'm reading Putain by Nelly Arcan.
