About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning about our world.

ABOUT ME

People often describe me as happy! I'm a traveller - it opens my eyes to hear stories from people all over the world. I strive to be more and more open and I like to be spontaneous and a little bit wild.

I love the people in my life, speaking to people in other languages, my studies, work, travels and sports. I am happiest when I am outside, laughing, being active, and surrounded by wonderful people who I can share with. Or when Im in the sea. I find it hard to stay in one place for a long time unless Im being challenged or really connecting with the people around me.

PHILOSOPHY

Todos somos de la tierra, bajo los mismos bosques, sobre la misma arena.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted, surfed and met friends (good ones) through couch surfing! :)

Some of the highlights have been:
- Surfing for a 2nd time (3 years later) with a lovely family in Chilean Patagonia. They welcomed me as if I were family.

- Meeting a dear friend through the site one day and hitting it off immediately. He's still a great friend.

- Hosting an English girl for a week, while she was working and staying in my house. She became part of the house!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being offered a place to sleep in a rural school in Swaziland when we got lost on our bike trip!

Hiking to some Inka ruins in the dark and meditating/singing/chanting under the stars with a group of strangers.

Swimming to the Isle of White from the mainland and making it alive!

Teach, Learn, Share

Food - its about sharing: I love to learn new dishes, to cook for people, to share different tastes from all over the world.
Swimming - I can teach you to swim :-)
I teach English and Spanish!
