Hi! 👋
My name is Álvaro, and I’m a friendly, respectful, and open-minded traveler who enjoys discovering new cultures and meeting people from different backgrounds.

I love traveling not just to see places, but to connect with locals, share experiences, and learn how people live in different parts of the world. I’m easygoing, clean, and always respectful of house rules and personal space.

In my free time, I enjoy walking around cities, trying local food, having good conversations, and learning from others’ perspectives. I’m happy to share stories, cook something together, or simply enjoy a coffee and chat, but I also understand and respect when hosts are busy.

I truly appreciate the Couchsurfing community and the spirit of trust and cultural exchange behind it. If you decide to host me, I’ll make sure to be a positive and grateful guest 🙂

Thanks for taking the time to read my profile, and I hope our paths cross someday!
