Hi peeps, I'm Silvia :)

I have two jobs: one, as a field

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea of sharing places with people. Meeting travelers allows me to know the places they come from and that, in a way, is like traveling for me. And when I travel, I love to get to know fellow vagabonds or locals who can help me get submerged in the culture. The best way to know places is through their folk and I would much rather have a cultural experience over a cliche touristic one.

Interests

I like hiking and getting to explore places I've never been to before. I like new things and am getting more and more interested in the adventurous aspects of tourism, especially in natural places: swimming, biking, canyoning, paragliding, camping, hiking in tropical jungles, etc.

I really am not much of a club person, though I do enjoy dancing and partying every once in a while. I'm not much of a drinker either and I really prefer a relaxed, natural environment over a night in a loud club.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a huge Tolkien, Dumas and Stephen King fan. I read lots
I currently love bands like Dream Theater, Metallica, Ben Howard and Sonata Arctica. When it comes to movies, I never get tired of Amelie, School of Rock, LOTR, Harry Potter, and a whole bunch of others. I also like stand up comedy a lot (Luis C.K., anyone?).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've had two close encounters with wild big cats, and somehow made it out of it without a scratch!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd love to try and show natural places of our country, especially natural ones. If you're the adventurous kind, you should contact me so we could plan a trip somewhere fun where you can safely (or not, your choice) jumping over waterfalls, hiking mountains or paragliding. I'd love to be an adventure buddy!
