ABOUT ME

I love travelling, meeting new people, discovering new countries, cultures, landscapes... I find that hard and adventurous makes for the best time (and memories) :)

PHILOSOPHY

Live as if you were to die tomorrow,
Learn as if you were to live forever.
- Gandhi

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people from every corner of the world :)

Interests

Photography, drawing, cooking, anything creative, espacially if I can use my hands, I love! :)
Dancing, climbing, hiking... If I can move and express myself, I'm there.
Reading, music, learning new languages and skills... Meeting new people and hearing about their culture, breathing in new odours, watching new landscapes... I'm an eternal curious! I always ask a lot of questions!

Music, Movies, and Books

I looove fantasy, YA and distopian litterature, but I also enjoy a good personal development book, my favourites are the ones by English journalist Helen Russell about Happiness, really recommend them!
Among my favourite movies you can find The theory of everything, The imitation game... But also The Lord of the Rings, Now You See Me and so much more!
I listen to quite a wide variety of music genres but I particularly enjoy crossovers: a bit of swing with some dubstep, some rap with violins... Lindsey Stirling, Manau, Caro Emerald, Ratatat, Roger Zarzour, Levitate, Imagine Dragons, some classic Eminem...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My most extaordinary adventure would be a 4 day hitchhiking trip I took with one of my best friends in Taiwan a few years back. We met there, lived in a squat for a couple of months and became flatmates. We were studying Chinese in Southern Taiwan. In April we had a 4 day holiday coming up but didn't know where to go. So we packed our bags and a tent, took a train to the outskirt of the city and raised our thumbs and a a sign that read "Anywhere". We waited 5 minutes before someone took us and it was on! Those 4 days were incredible! We went places we never imagined and met the loveliest people ever.

Teach, Learn, Share

What would you like to do? What's your dream? Your project? Let's have a chat and I'll be thrilled to brainstorm with you! If there's anything in my skillset that can help, I'll be more than happy to teach you. If not, I'll be over the moon to learn a new skill or somehow problem-solve :) I love a good puzzle!
