About Me

Been walking this amazing Earth for the last 32 years (apparently I crawled for the first 2) and so far I've only been surrounded by unique and interesting experiences... My ongoing one set off 2 years ago when I decided to start a PhD (one unique journey, that's for sure)! As an aspiring researcher (sic), I must show my work giving me the opportunity to travel around! Hard life (isn't it?) but since I love travelling, I get to add more countries and places to the list... I also dabble with some used skates (ice and asphalt), tear my running shoes, meet my friends for a cheeky mid week pint, read, cook and drink wine after a long day or just laugh at the crazy but beautiful world that surrounds me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel... we all do! Hotels and not an obvious choice anymore, AirBnB is perfect when you're travelling with friends but when alone, why not meet others like you; people that are willing to share their stories. I like meeting new people, talking to them, knowing a bit about them is what makes all of us richer...

Interests

Grear conversations, I like hearing people's stories and imagine how they were shaped by all these events they were willing to share. I'm also a technologist, I like playing with technical bits and bobs and making them work my will (there's not enough human center designed tools around us).

Music, Movies, and Books

Good old 80's and 90's, I grew up with them :) I tend to listen to whatever makes my ears tingle in a nice way. I prefer TV series over movies: Supernatural, Hannibal, Dexter, Breaking Bad, Walking Dead, Suits.

My current reading seems to be divided between academic papers/books and cooking websites :) I've read all Grisham's books while I was trying to perfect my English but I guess my fav book has to be Count of Monte Cristo!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
