About Me

Hey! 👋
I’ve been travelling for quite a while now — sometimes with a backpack, sometimes hitchhiking, and for the last 6 years, mostly on my bike (though not always non-stop!). I like to mix travel with some work periods in between — that’s how I’ve lived in places like England, Romania, Ecuador, and Spain.

I’ve travelled a lot around Europe, often camping and being self-sufficient, and I totally love this way of exploring — slow, simple, and full of encounters with people and cultures.

Lately I’ve been really into natural living, making my own cosmetics and brewing kombucha wherever I settle for a while. I enjoy creating things from scratch — it’s a fun way to stay connected with nature and simplicity.

I really enjoy meeting locals and other travellers who get excited about discovering new things, who are curious and open-minded. For me, that’s what makes the road so special.

¡Peace, smiles and a bit of road dust! 🚴‍♀️✨

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because travelling is way more fun when you can share moments with people who live where you’re passing through. I love when someone shows me their favorite spots, hidden corners, or just shares a good conversation over a tea or a walk. It’s all about connection and good vibes.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a bit of everything! I usually go for fantasy books or movies based on true stories. And music… depends on the mood — sometimes calm and chill, sometimes something that makes me dance while cooking.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Deciding to live and work in different countries, and discovering how free and alive it feels to travel the world by bike.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach:
I can share a bit about bike touring — how to travel light, camp in the wild, or plan a trip on two wheels. Also happy to share some Spanish (or help with your Spanish!) and maybe cook something simple together.

Learn:
I’m always up for learning new things — from local recipes and languages to music, crafts, or just how people live and see the world in different places.

Share:
Stories, laughs, good food, sunsets, and that feeling of freedom that comes with travelling. I really enjoy simple moments and genuine connection.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories from the road, laughter, and time together. I love hiking, cooking something simple, exploring your favorite local places, or just chatting about life. I can also share some bike travel tips if you’re curious about that world!

Countries I’ve Lived In
