About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I have just moved to Barcelona, a city that has inspired me greatly. I am looking forward to travel to new places and continue to meet amazing new people along the way!

ABOUT ME

I am fun, creative and wacky. I have a passion for meeting people of all ages and cultures, tasting different foods, experiencing different places. For me socializing is an essential part of my life, both in the work environment and outside it. I am an artist in spirit and have a fascination with space and architecture, especially urban space and the way people inhabit it. I love art and poetry. I am confident and outgoing and am up for an adventure. Music makes me feel. I love going out and meeting people and dancing to good music. Any music, so long as it makes me want to dance. Progressive trance ,deep house, drum and bass, electro, jazz, swing and TECHNO!! are my favourite. At the end of 2011 I traveled for 4 months, visiting 14 countries and 28 cities. I couch surfed extensively and had great experiences. I still cannot believe how gracious people were and how welcoming, I felt like I was at home with so many people I stayed with. There is nothing better than spontaneity, those fabulous times that are completely random and completely unforgettable!

PHILOSOPHY

It's hard, but living in the moment and looking at life and every situation in a positive way is essential.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently I am unable to host in my small apartment but this might change when I move into a bigger place. However I am VERY excited to welcome travelers to Barcelona and show them around. Nothing excites me more than meeting foreign people and exploring together as this is a new city for me too and there is so much to discover!
