About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Travel is the only thing you buy, that makes you richer. You only live once, let us explore the world!
ABOUT ME
I am a student of business administration. I am an adventurous guy that is seeking for new places to visit, as well as meeting with locals and get a little bit of the culture of every city I visit.
I have already had two exchange experiences, the very first one, in London, UK, which was amazing. I lived there for about 9 months and enjoyed UK's multiculturalism and beautiful cities. My second exchange was in Canada, where I lived for a year. I went back to my country but, since I liked the nature, the rockies and Canadian hospitality so much, I decided to get back to Canada and who knows what the future will bring. We only live once, so I am trying to make the most of these experiences.
PHILOSOPHY
You only live once, make the most of it!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
After my experience in Scotland & Canada, I started to interact with this comunity and I love it! I had 4 months break and decided to do backpacking through the west coast of North America, and I just have to say that my trip wouldnt've been as good as it was if it hadn't been for the couchsurfing comunity! All the people I met gave me way more than a couch: a piece of advice, an awesome friendship, invaluable experiences! I cannot explain how cool is to have the opportunity to participate and interact with this community.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I gave a couch for the very first time here in Calgary, two years ago when I was having an international exchange with MRU, and it was certainly super cool. You can really get to know great people in the hosting process, hanging out with them, and sharing experiences.
I also have had a couple of experiences surfing some couches in Inverness, Scotland, and lately in Vancouver, Canada and San Francisco in the States. All of them were terrific. I've had the good fortune of having nice hosts. Every person I have met in the couch surfing process teaches me something new and open my mind to a world of new opportunities.
I am definitely going to collect more experiences with couch surfing.
Interests
I just got myself a new hobby, I bought a Mountain Bike, so now I am biking like crazy, somebody out there willing to join me in epic adventures in a bike?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
My exchange experience in London woke me up, and has been one of the most amazing experiences in my life. I went there to learn the language, and I learned way more than that. I opened my mind to new cultures, met tons of friends and got bitten by the travel bug! Just right now, I am having my round three... another exchange experience in Canada, and I am sure this won't be the last one!
Teach, Learn, Share
I would like to learn tons of things! I love learning about cultures, as well as trying traditional food. Another cool think I have always wanted to learn is surfing!
