I'm a very respectful and open minded person. My experiences backpacking and couchsurfing have been changing the way I see the world. When I'm traveling I get to see on one hand how small we are to the world, but yet how one single person is capable of changing it.

I can be a talkative or observer person, depending on the situation and people.

I live by myself here so I know how to respect other peoples' home, I'm very tide and clean. Also I like to cook, so I can share some good homemade meal.

PHILOSOPHY

-Every person that we meet changes us somehow.
-Be the change you want for the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet with the locals, experience the local meals, drinks, learn the language. To be part of the city and not a tourist. Exchange life stories and experiences.
