Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My experiences have been nothing but positive:

• sharing stories and adventures with complete strangers is amazing!
• strangers become friends!
• local travel tips are always more exciting and adventurous than a guidebook!

Interests

Wheeew you made it all the way down here! Thanks for the interest :-)

First of all, there is to say that I mostly travel with my boyfriend Fabio. He and I share the passion for hiking, photography, and adventuring in new places and we love exploring the world together. We love sharing our experiences, which is also why I decided to start a travel blog with our adventures (still working on it). Sports are usually part of our travels. There is always a good chance that we either hike, snorkel, dive, boulder or surf during our travels. So if you have a good tip for a decent spot for all of the above during our stay at your place or if you want to hike at our place, we should get together!

We also share our love for dogs. When we lived in Sweden we took care of the sweetest Bichon-Havanese named ALBIN (please include this name in your request to Fabio if you want to be hosted by us). We hope to have our own dog when we are more settled than currently.

I personally have a predilection for good reads and writing and I mostly travel with a book and I always keep a travel diary wherever I adventure off to. Also, I work as a freelance website copywriter for a Dutch company, which helps me finance my traveling. I would consider myself frank, adventurous, curious, and I am always up for some adventures. Plus, I would never say no to some baking action :-)
Some might say, I am a little crazy about symmetry and accuracy when it comes to arranging or decorating but why would you not wanna make it look good???
