Overview
About Me
I am an Easy going person, interested in everything, i am always trying to learn new things and make new experiences.
After 2 amazing years in Germany I decided to do a gap year, and do everything I always wanted to do.
In one year I traveled around 8 countries, hiked 400km, sailed more than a 1000km, biked 300km, walked, walked and walked and finally lost 15 kg.
I came to Budapest for a weedind and decided to stay in Hungary to visit, after 3 weeks I decided to buy a bike and go to Bratislava.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because I think traveling that way provides a unique cultural experience. I don't want to be a tourist I want to be a traveler.
As a kid we use to host foreign students for a school year. It was such an amazing experience that when discovered CS with my girlfriend when I arrived in Germany ( During 2 years we hosted several people) I felt directly in love with the concept of sharing once again hospitality with people from different cultures and different countries around the world.
Local people have so much to offer, it is I think the best way to learn about the place and the culture where I stay.

Inside out
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Going for a week of canyoning without a guide and finishing a 12hours long canyon. Ending up the week the head full of memories and having lost 5 kilos.
Jumping alone from a plane flying at 400km/h.
Sailing 10hours during winter in Britanny, reading maps in the cockpit with a 5meter swell and a 20 knot wind.
Move to Germany without knowing a word of German, coming back knowing a new language a new culture and a lot of incredible new friends.
Got inked by a 103 years old tatoo lady in the middle of the rice terraces 3h far from the first city, I planed to stay there a day, but I felt in love with the village and decided to stay. I finally stayed there few weeks and ended up living as a local.
