Overview
About Me
I'm an outgoing person, who loves many things!
I have general interests, and even though I have a preference for the exact sciences (not in a nerdy way :P), I enjoy reading and talking about other subjects - psicology, biology, some art stuff, music, etc).
I also listen to a lot of music and play the guitar. I enjoy a lot getting to know new people who can show me their cultures and their experiences, and new points of view! :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Even thouh I'm a member since 2015, only recently did I get to trully know what it was about! I'm here to get to know interesting people and cultures, in a new way!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I think the most amazing thing I've done so far was to get a 1st medal in the FSKA World Karate Championship. It was a very humbling experience as facing some of the best guys in world, and seeing how much work they put into it.
For the next amazing thing that I'm hoping to do, I will be doing an Interrail this summer with my buddies, and something will be writen here after that
