My name is Leander. Or Leandro, it depends. I'm half Belgian half Ecuadorian. My friends just call me Leo, and so can you!

I'm a relaxed and open-minded person. Love to meet interesting people from all over the world no matter what age, race, beliefs or anything, that's why I'm on couch surfing.

I'm passionate about music in all its forms, as long as it's from the heart. I love going to concerts and parties (from swinging funky rythms to dark underground raves)
I also play the guitar, though I should make more time for it.

I love animals and like to see beautiful places in nature, it's a big motivation to go traveling, aside from meeting people from different places and cultures all over the world and learn from each other.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

I wish I had joined CS sooner, because I love to meet and talk to people from different places all over the world.

What I like most about traveling via CS is meeting local people, eat local food, get to know local music, and just get to really know a place from the inside

Музыка, кино и книги

Music has always been a great passion in my life. Rock, funk, disco, salsa, afrobeat and almost all other African music, blues, reggae, cumbia, classical, drum and bass, darkstep, techno and everything in between

Books are a great way to let your mind travel and gain insights about humans, in our world or in fantastical worlds :)
