I am a mindful, patient and curious man looking to experiment a different way to travel. I am not a social network addicted, in fact...I am having some trouble just filling this table! But, I am still quite good in real life: I am a good observer so, if you're going to host me, expect a lot of questions. I am also a good talker. Expect someone who wants to dive inside your culture. And I am clean and orderly, I try to be always polite in all situations.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I've been a "traditional traveller" since today. The one used to comfortable hotels and well planned schedules. The more travels I make, the more I tend to look towards people and culture instead of...sightseeing spots. Now, I'm looking for a different side of travel. What better way to experiment culture then have a close view of people's life, and have a drink with them?
