About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world and meet amazing people along the way

ABOUT ME

I'm a digital nomad. I've been working in marketing and advertisement several years, mostly in agencies with multinational companies as clients. I was kinda looking for a change of pace, professionally speaking, and in 2021 I started a new challenge in an American Company, it kinda came knocking on my door so it was perfect timing.

One of the things I love doing the most is traveling, I'm an open-minded person and I enjoy meeting people from around the world. I work 100% remotely so I'm always free to move around whenever I want.

I was living between Egypt and Peru and practicing my Arabic a little bit. But now I am planning my next adventure. I'm a summer kind of person so most likely you will find me in a place where I can enjoy some beach days.

Also, I love animals, especially dogs, although my idea and dream of having 4 big dogs in my apartment are not quite the best. I also like cooking, playing board games (I'm so competitive though, I need to win haha ), dancing, playing volleyball, and definitely watching Netflix with a nice cup of white wine and some snacks (I'm running out of things to watch, so any recommendation is welcome as long is not a terror movie or series, I get so scared)

PHILOSOPHY

We only get to live once, so let's better enjoy it as fully as we can and live with no regrets.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm back on track with my mission of travelling the world and meeting new people. I think here I get the chance to do both and be able to learn from different countries cultures from locals. Also, it would be nice to find some travelers on the road that could join me in this adventure.

Interests

I'm pretty good at languages, so I will love to learn at least 3 or 4 more. Also, my obvious interest is to travel the world. I want to know about different cultures and learn about them.

Music, Movies, and Books

I've studied Communications so of course, I love reading books. The first book that I read was by Paulo Coelho and I fell in love with the way he writes. I've read almost all of his books. I also love a Chilean writer called Isabel Allende. Some other writers that i like are Ken Follet, Vargas Llosa, Ernesto Sabato, García Marquez... Also, i have to say that one of my favorite marketing books is Brainwashed.

In music, I can say that I like lots of different kinds of music but most of the music I listen to is electronic, house, rock, alternative, indie, sometimes pop-rock. But lately, I have expanded my range a bit, I added lots of Arabic music (since I lived in Egypt), and when I'm in a mood, why not some party music I can dance with.

In movies, I must say it depends on my mood. Even when I'm such a romantic, sometimes I just want to see some action movies. The only movies I truly hate are horror movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think that until now traveling alone is one of the amazing things that I've done in my life. Some years ago I moved into Chile in a house full of strangers. The great thing was that they were from all over the world. I met people from Spain, England, Italy, Austria, Germany, USA, Mexico, Bolivia...and so much more. Traveling with them was even a greater experience. I've learned a lot on those travels and become a more free-spirit person.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, adventures, and for sure some nice companionship. I can bring a change of pace, which in my experience always comes with positive things.
