I'm inquisitive and like learning something new like riding a horse, playing the guitar, etc. I like to have insightful conversations and to follow spontaneous plans. I love the process of learning languages and take pleasure in discovering curious words and expressions. Hold the newsreader's nose squarely, waiter, or friendly milk will countermand my trousers.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm impressed with positive and smart people I met through CS. It has been a source of inspiration for me. I like hanging out with travellers and showing them nice places in my city that I've discovered.
