About Me

Guy looking forward to step out of his bubble, more and more! Chill, curious, with a growing passion for traveling and meeting different places and cultures on the planet.

Currently planning a trip through Europe from mid Nov to mid Jan 2026. Goal is to find good company and make friends on the way (not really hard here, right? 😁).

I met CouchSurfing in 2015, when traveling like this was not really an option. Finally experienced it for the first time in 2023, when I had the most wonderful time of my life. From there, I realized I want this to be part of my story. Someday, I want to give it back to the community by becoming a host and receive people from all kinds of places.

I'm open to pretty much any activities, from a good conversation to partying, from cooking to eating out, from just chilling to vibing :)

I currently need to work remotely while traveling, so I need to dedicate part of the days and weeks to my job. Sometimes it can be limiting, but I'm sure won't hurt the overall experience.

Every trip, every new place is like another beginning to me... so hit me up! 🤙

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Specially for an introvert, Couchsurfing seems like the perfect place to meet new people and make friends while traveling, dealing with different cultures and growing with the experience here. Traveling is one of the things that give my life a purpose, and it wouldn't be this way without people on the way.

Currently reading The German Ideology (taking it slow and steady 😁).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Right now, backpacking for a couple months while couchsurfing, for sure =)

I'd also love to start learning a new instrument.
