Hello there! My name is Mika and I'm from Argentina.
A veterinarian, traveller and now full-time petsitter.
I'm 38 years old and in 2020, I made the decision to quit my job and pursue my dreams.
Now, four years later, I'm planning my next adventure. During May, June, and July, I will be travelling, pet sitting, and exploring street art in Switzerland, Germany, the Czech Republic, and Poland.

I'm a friendly, easygoing person who is curious about different cultures, food, and languages. I'm also a cat, coffee, murals, and sunsets lover. My interests include photography, trekking, visiting coffee shops, museums, and cultural events.

I've been pet-sitting around Europe since November 2022 and currently, I'm in the UK.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I love sharing my travels with others, as everything is better with good company. It's amazing how much I've learned from connecting with locals and listening to their stories. During my time living in Thailand, I made some of my closest friends while travelling. Now, I'm thrilled to have had a similar experience in Europe and am looking forward to meeting new people in my next destination!

One of my favourites from my childhood; is Jules Verne, his books make me want to travel so here im.
As a street art lover, I can't recommend enough Wall and Piece by Banksy.
