I love traveling and want to explore the world! Meeting new people and getting to know new cultures has always been one of my compassions. I'm also convinced that a local can show you much more interesting places that common tourists would never get to know. Couchsurfing seems to be the perfect platform to make cultural exchange and traveling possible to everyone- even to poor students who can't afford expensive hotels ;)

A friend and I hitchhiked to the top of Mauna Kea on the Big Island of Hawaii :)
