About Me

ABOUT ME

I am a very positive person who loves meeting different people from different backgrounds. I am generally laid back but I do love to DO stuff. I have heard great things about couchsurfing from friends of mine which is why I joined.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is to have a positive outlook on life and try not to become overburdened by the problems in the world. Just treat others like you would like to be treated and don't take things too seriously!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to be hosted by locals when I travel so I can get to know cities from a local viewpoint. I also love to show around travelers in my country as I think it motivates locals to do stuff they normally wouldn't do.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had people hosted in the same apartment as me, and I have guided them around the city but I haven't hosted people yet. I have surfed three times now and it has been fantastic so far!

Interests

Traveling, Skiing, Sailing, Nature, Cities, Nightlife, Culture, Partying, Architecture and more!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite movies are: before sunrise, The Usual Suspects, Silence of the Lambs, 2001, TDK, Dr. Strangelove, Drive, The Godfather and a lot more to name.
My favorite book is Catch-22 though I don't nearly read enough.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have spend 6 months on exchange in Madrid where I have met many friends and felt very much at home. I miss that time dearly. I have traveled from Buenos Aires to Rio and Buenos Aires to Peru. And I have seen amazing things like the falls of Iguacu, the whales at peninsula Valdez, the city of Rio de Janeiro, Machu Pichu, the salt flats of Bolivia, La Paz and lake Titicaca.

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Bolivia, Brazil, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Paraguay, Peru, Switzerland, Turkey, United Kingdom, United States
