Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently living in Brussels, which is a very diverse and dynamic city where projects and ideas materialize because people are goodhearted and dedicated!
I want to say how very sorry I am for my low rate of couch-requests replies... I will do my very best to improve it from now on. I move quite a lot and don't always update my account. Sorry

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted Rosie and Pipsa in Lisbon two super cool girls! And then traveled around Hungary for 8 days, couchsurfing everywhere, meeting the Very Best of Hungarian people. I am so grateful to all of them for sharing so much of their lives, culture, country..!

Interests

New experiences! I'll trust what people tell me is great and go for it. Love sports (even though I'm not a fast runner or anything..). The extreme ones too, like Bungee-jumping. Love going for walks. Mountains, beach, ..
I also love culture and innovative educational practices and methodologies - gotta change the World by showing kids kindness, empathy, responsibility, critical thinking, entrepreneurship, etc are all about.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Colombia. It's Paradise. The people, the landscape, the food... It's the Most Amazing Thing I've ever lived so far.
Black and White Desert n Egypt. Especially the white one, at Sunrise. I woke up at 5am and started walking on my own in the middle of nowhere while the sun was coming out. Not a soul in sight and the strangest, most beautiful lanscape in the world just made me feel.. complete fullfilment. A pure sense of Happiness and Gratefulness for who I am and every circumstance that led me to be in that exact place at that exact time. Can't describe it any better....
The Egyptian people. Lots of love for the Egyptian people.

Teach, Learn, Share

More into learning at this point. I'll write more in here when I get wiser, I guess!
Everyone has something to add on someone else, and that's what I love about couchsurfing. Hosts are people who open up their world to you and the gratefulness makes surfers retribute. This "relationship" is not likely to be as easily established in other circumstances :)
Ecology and nature preservation mean a lot to me, although I'm not the stereotypical "ecologist".
