I use Couchsurfing to connect with locals and experience places in a more human way. I also host when I’m home (or when I can), because I love returning the good energy.

I did a long trip (almost 2 years) that completely changed my life. During that time I tried a mix of adventures and cultural experiences: skydiving, bungee jumping, a desert safari, and reaching the top of a 5400m snowy mountain. I also did a lot climbing (indoor + outdoor) and ended up meeting amazing people through the climbing community in different countries. I’ve had some unforgettable moments too — like kayaking in open water, traveling through Vietnam (Cat Ba islands was a highlight), and taking the Trans-Siberian train in Russia. The best part wasn’t just the activities, but the people I met along the way and the stories we shared.
