Hello everyone! :)
I'm Vanessa and I just graduated university with a BA in cultural anthropology. I love to travel, to discover new places and to explore different cultures. Because of that couchsurfing is such a great opportunity to travel better! I also have some experiencing in workaway (volunteering in exchange for food a a sleeping place).
I'm a very positive, uncomplicated and fun person with an open mind. I love connecting with people, sharing stories, music ... and food :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love connecting with new people which couchsurfing enables so naturally. Moreover, Couchsurfing gives the opportunity to travel deeper and to share your stories about your trips. You can interact with new people, feel the vibes of the city, explore their traditions and culture and just have a good time :) Additionally, I find the idea of the sharing economy really fascinating.

Interests

I enjoy doing yoga and meditation. I love to read, listen to good music, go to festivals and meet my friends. Furthermore, I enjoy being in the nature, countryside as well as seaside. I really love to cook, especially healthy food (I´m a vegan). I enjoy having deep conversations with inspiring people.
I also love working in the social field ... I was a caregiver in a elderly people´s home and a baysitter.
