CURRENT MISSION

Currently traveling in Japan, my plan is to see Kyoto, Osaka, Hiroshima and let's see what else.

ABOUT ME

I love travelling and getting to know people from different backgrounds and cultures. Having met some couchsurfers on my travels in Southamerica I got to know Couchsurfing. I love the idea and made great experiences all over the world and try to host people as well from time to time.
I'm an open minded person, interested to learn about cultures y languages and fascinated by the beauty of nature.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The first time I got to know Couchsurfing was while travelling in Southamerica. In Parati, Brazil, I met some couchsurfers by accident. We decided to meet for dinner and went out afterwards. The night was awesome and I loved the mix of cultures and communicating somewhere in between English, Spanish and Portuguese. Since then I surfed every now and then and hosted some couchsurfers at my place.

Interests

I enjoy sports a lot: I go running and ride the race and mountain bike on a regular basis. Apart from that I like music, concerts, going out and trying new stuff. On my travels my camera is my best companion trying to grasp the magic of the special moments.
