About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find balance by experiencing and understanding. To be always happy.

ABOUT ME

I like to travel around the world meeting loads of different people, cultures and lifestyles along the way.
I like to make friends and it has been fantastic to see friends again after a long time. Social networks are just amazing in reuniting people who you've lost contact with, or friends you met on a trip and then meet again somewhere else.
I like to peek into people's personalities and try to discover who they really are behind the curtains, but I'm also respectful and don't like to pry anywhere if uninvited.
I am social and lonely, pacient and impacient, calmed and stubborn, generally very easy-going and happy.

PHILOSOPHY

Your happiness resides within yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

CS is just a great idea, I try to collaborate and make it a stronger world initiative.
When I travel, I contact people with similar interests so they can share details that only a local would.
I'm also always on the lookout for travelers when I'm home and offer them help (specially people from countries I've visited). It's always good to have a local contact in case of any unexpected situation.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have both hosted and surfed. Great experiences and great friends came from these opportunities.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all music genres. I particularly enjoy dancing salsa and merengue with a skilled partner though I have the patience to teach or practice with anyone. I only read history and science.
I've liked so many movies... I've suffered with Schindler's list, cried to The Notebook, laughed to Amelie and slept to Sleepers.... I pretty much like them all!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The Giza pyramids and Angel falls have left me completely breathless....
