I only accept last minute couchrequests. same day- few days in advance is perfect. more than a week I'll reject always. Not too much planning :)

I am traveling until end of December '16 from Mexico to Venezuela, after that everybody is again always welcome wherever I will live!

I prefer to go based on what locals tell me. I find it more important who i am with, than where I am. I get my energy from meeting people, and enjoy giving back in multiples! When travelling, I just like to have things go their way. What's the worst that can happen, right?

PHILOSOPHY

The world is one big city, we're all the same!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined back in 2008, it was really quite small back then!! You could still put weird internet thingys on your profile!

I'm on a world tour and want to meet up with locals!
