Because I strongly believe in the sharing economy and in sustainable living, and I like the idea of staying with locals while travelling, and to host people from other places. Many times, standard travelling can be a superficial and cold experience, where tourists do not really get to mingle with the locals. Couchsurfing is different.

I like traditional Irish music, reggae, country, pop, '80s music and rock. I am into independent movies. My favourite book is 'The Tailor and Ansty', and I am also a big fan of Paulo Coelho.
