About Me

*We only host female guests*

ABOUT ME

I live in Slovakia with my partner and dog. We travel when we can, usually camping in the summer.

PHILOSOPHY

To live while im alive.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I studied in Mexico for a year in an apartment with 7 Mexicans. They taught me the meaning of community and I will never see the world the same. This is what couch surfing is so me...global community. People rather than sights.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed and been surfed...but my first couchsurfing experience through this site was in Bologna, Italy. I was welcomed into a house and found myself with a community around me. We ate, drank, talked, and played cards with each other and it was like coming home. Brilliant experience. Thanks Stephania!

Interests

Im into rock climbing, kayaking, riding, reading writing and drinking lots of coffee. I wish I could make my own furnature, train a horse, sew and play an instrument.
I would really like to make a raft and float down a river in Sweden this summer so if anyone is interested let me know.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once wore a chile costume and was the chile mascot in an advertisement for...chile...in Mexico. I still wear the costume around if im having a bad hair day.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn...teach me anything.
I can help you to learn Spanish if you are a beginner. And I have a secret recipe for a delicious Mexican dessert that I may be willing to part with...maybe.
