Overview
About Me
First off, I'm terrible at goodbys.
I love trying new food (just discovered that I LOVE insects)
I've traveled with friends and family and I am proud to announce that I also started to travel on my own and it turned out amazingly.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Unfortunately, I live in a tiny flat and won't be able to host anyone, but it will be a great pleasure to meet up new people at CS events.
I find this CS project amazing. I have great love for cultural gathering and making encounters. I hope that CS will further help me to overcome any fear far off lands

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
New Delhi, India : I missed a plane that should have brought me 2000km (1,200 miles) further south for a volunteer mission. The airport had lost my luggage. It was 2 am and after 22 hours of traveling and 6 hours of waiting in the airport, I was given back my stuff and informed that the next flight would leave in 5 more hours. No need to say, I was done with waiting, so I got the hell out of there.
I had chosen to travel without my cellphone and did not have access to internet for some days, so nobody knew where I was and I did not know where I was going either.
This 2 month trip was life changing.
And yes, I made it to the volunteer mission in Mahabalipuram (Tamil Nadu) :)
AND another amazing thing I will never forget was three weeks on my own in Iceland, hitchiking and camping across 1,300km ! Yeehaa !
Teach, Learn, Share
I wish to learn from people and from their experiences.
I read once that when you speak, you’re only repeating what you already know, whereas when you listen, you will always learn something new :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
smiles, laughs, chit chats and philosophical conversations
