Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Recently not much. Juste moved to Ulan Bator with my family. I'll be glad to meet travellers, show them around... even hop on their travelling plans sometime.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Never actually surfed a couch but I would love to at some point :).

Interests

The sea, the ocean, swimming, scuba diving. Reading, Guitar, sustainable development, intercultural communication, alternative medicine, ethnology, spirituality, food... more or less anything that in my opinion makes the world a better place and people happier or more connected.

I am amazed that beauty often surfaces out of things you don't expect to be beautiful...
