Overview
About Me
Current mission: To turn my home into a global crossroads where cultures collide, ideas spark, and lifelong friendships are forged.
About me: Curious soul with a penchant for deep conversations, cultural exchanges, and making the world feel a little smaller. I thrive on exploring new perspectives, sharing stories, and creating connections that go beyond borders. My door is open to adventurers, thinkers, and storytellers alike—let’s make some unforgettable memories!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
At present I don't have any travel plans to places far off, but would happily like to host some people. Would be a nice way to meet new people and get to know different culture.
Interests
Travelling/Hiking, Music, Reading, Cooking (not meth!), meeting new people and hanging out in pubs, merge into different cultures and absorb in the traditions and values people carry with themselves.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: From soulful indie beats to fiery Latin rhythms, my playlist swings wildly—think Arctic Monkeys followed by Buena Vista Social Club, with a surprise Bollywood banger in the mix.
Books: I’m a sucker for stories that make you think—Haruki Murakami for the surreal, Yuval Noah Harari for the big picture, and a little Douglas Adams when I need to laugh at the absurdity of it all.
Movies: Anything that keeps me guessing or takes me on a journey—Tarantino’s clever chaos, Studio Ghibli’s magical worlds, and the occasional guilty-pleasure rom-com because, hey, life needs balance
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I hitchhiked on a whim in the middle of nowhere and ended up being invited to a stranger’s wedding—spent the night dancing with the bride’s grandma and teaching the groom’s friends how to say ‘cheers’ in five different languages 🤣
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: I can teach you how to make a killer vegan dish, break down the basics of climate impact (yes, I’m that nerdy), or show you how to dance like no one’s watching—even if they are.
Learn: I’m always eager to learn a new language, a quirky skill, or even just the secret to your grandma’s legendary recipes. Surprise me—I’m all ears!
Share: Stories, laughter, and maybe a few travel hacks I’ve picked up along the way. Plus, I’ll share my home like it’s yours—mi casa es tu casa!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I bring more than just a backpack—I’ll share intriguing travel stories, a sharp sense of humor, and a knack for turning any moment into a great conversation. Need tips on hidden gems or vegan eats? I’ve got you covered. Want a deep dive into sustainability or a lighthearted chat about life’s quirks? Let’s do it over tea, coffee, or your drink of choice!
