About Me

Always trying to learn as much as I can. Listening, sharing.

I will not answer to copy paste requests so please give your request a personal touch.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I feel like the travelling experience becomes much more enriching when you meet people and learn from the way they live. That way you can change the way you do things in your own life. I feel like this is a good way to experience travel this way and meet great people that you would not meet in any other way.
It also just makes me realize how you can actually trust people no matter what they say. For me it could not be any other way.

Interests

I really like dancing and I've done it my whole life I'm always opened to try new styles.
I also love languages and linguistics very much. That is mainly my field of study.
I love music and listen to it pretty much all the time and I also enjoy playing the guitar.
I'm really into politics and enjoy talking about it and I like to be politically active. Having conversations with people with a diferent point of view and knowing their perspective is something I also find really enriching.

Some other things I love: books, nature, music festivals, alternative places, riding my bike, cooking, drinking beer...

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music is usually from the 60s, 70s and 80s. I also like ska and reggae a lot. I am not really into comercial music and I am always opened to go to a concert or listen to a new band.

I'll also take any suggestion on a good book or movie. Most of the time I enjoy reading about politics, linguistics, anthropology or philosophy but I also read some novels. I enioy reading in diferent languages and find it really enriching. I also enjoy alternative movies and cinema festivals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think one of the most amazing things I've done was going to Ireland for a month at the age of 12. Now, after having had the chance to do similar stuff several times and after having met and lived with people from all over the world, I always look back at the time when I was 12 and decided to go abroad. I had very basic knowledge of the langue and I didn't know the family I was going to stay with. I had an amazing time and learnt so many things even if I was not able to realize it at the moment.
I always think back and feel like that was the thing that made me discover traveling and languages that have become two of the things that I love the most.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to listen to people's perspective and learn from it.
I find travelling the best way to learn and share and open my mind.
