I’m Johana and I’m 21 years old. What I really love about traveling is the opportunity for cultural exchange. I enjoy seeing how every culture is completely different, that's the beauty of it. I love to observe the cultural relativism with my own eyes. I love co-creating with other people. Art, beauty, nature are omnipresent and make me feel alive! I love meeting people from all over the world. They are always open-minded in a different way. Also enjoy listening to the funny stories of different families. These moments will be imprinted in my heart forever. One day I want to tell my children all the stories of bravery, adventure and beauty of difference in the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think this way of accommodation enriches me the most. It’s so authentic and feels like I am truly living my life! There is no better way to grow than to form new friendships, share your experiences and learn from each other.
