About Me

CURRENT MISSION

see the world, learn new languages and be happy

ABOUT ME

I am a wanna-be linguist with a few symptoms of peter pan syndrome. I like travelling and discovering new cultures (I have a special taste for food cultures). I am also a blogger, although Facebook is slowly killing this activity.

PHILOSOPHY

I am still in search of a philosophy of life. In the meanwhile, I guess that my beloved ones, together with the kindness of strangers, the beauty of the world and the interest in what I study help me to enjoy it without thinking too much about life's many problems.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope to have a couch in the future. In the meanwhile, I can participate by travelling and by sharing with the CS community my travelling experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am still new to CS. I have only surfed a couch in Stuttgart so far, but it was a totally positive experience.
