Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is such a great way to meet new people in a unique way.
Locals just know the best about cities and locals. So the possibility to get to know foreigners becoming friends and exchanging stories and knowledge.

Personally, I am not a big fan of typical tourist spots - better experience it the local way.

All this and more combinded makes Couchsurfing so special!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There are so many unforgettable experiences during 3 years of travelling.

Swimming with heaps of wild Dolphins and being surrounded by them was an unforgettable experience.
I just love the ocean so becoming a Divemaster and being able to dive around the world is such a privilege.
