Overview
About Me
I am a 22 years old tourism student who loves to travel, discovering new places and meet new people. I am very curious and active, there is no day I don't do sport. I play football, work as a ski and snowboard instructor , do mountainbike and go running. I grew up in the Swiss Alps, and thus love to do activities in the mountains. In the winter I am skiing or snowboarding everyday, mostly freeriding. In the summer if I am not travelling I would be on my mountainbike. I always try to do my best, take the positive of every experience and most important enjoy my life, doing what I like most. Travelling is not an interest but a need. I am also very independent and autonomous as I left my parent's house very early and live the life I love. For me a day has not enough hour to do all I want to do. I neither like to give up something I will train hard to obtain what I'd like to. And I also like to be crazy, do crazy thing. I don't want to have any regrets and I am sure if you really want to make something it is possible.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am on couchsurfing to meet people from all over the world and to experience another way to travel as the "traditional" tourists do. For me travelling is not going to a beach and sit there. Neither take a prepared circuit. To me travelling is meeting local people and get used to their way of life and their culture. Further couchsurfing is also a good solution for young people and student to travel a lot without a big budget.

I experienced really the cinema in Edinburgh. I like several type of film, historic film, Tim Burton's film, action, thriller etc.
Reading is something I really like to do. Rather than watching TV I would grab a book. At the moment I am reading Diana Gabaldon's novel. I really appreciate Marc Levy and David Musso as well.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I took an exchange semester in Edinburgh. It was an amazing experience.
I worked in a mountain hut and took the helicopter
I did an entire day of freeride
Teach, Learn, Share
In the winter I am teaching ski to children from 3 to 7. To me it is the perfect job. We have a really nice and familiar atmosphere in the ski school and every day I go to work with the smile. I love to transmit my passion to the children and to see their progress.
I am very curious and like to instruct myself, but there is not enough time to learn everything.
I love to share my activities with people, so if you're interested for a jogging, a football game or a guitar session, feel free to contact me !
