Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE In 2012 I was hosted by a very nice family in Le Havre, France. In 2015 I was hosted by a wonderful person in Trabzon, Turkey. 2016 was the time for Germany and my largest experience in couchsurfing, being hosted in 4 different cities by wonderful local people. 2017 Great experience in Belgium with a really nice host tasting beers. I have hosted few people in Turkey and I’m always open to help if not possible hosting, finding other options or giving advices. As a traveler I know how it feels to find a friendly hand when you’re far from all your friends and relatives.
Music, Movies, and Books
Any kind of music, from classics to salsa and electro house.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Skydiving in Portugal, impossible to describe!
Teach, Learn, Share
Nowadays I’m learning French, so any chance to practice it is welcome :) I can also help with your Spanish as well.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I have a very large comfy sofa for 1 (maybe 2) in an old but maintained flat in the centre of Valencia. But be warned....I'm a loud SNORER so not ideal for light sleepers 😝. Ideal location for visiting all the beautiful restaurants, bars, museums and sites Valencia has to offer. Also a short ride from the beach. Perfect if you want to explore the city alone but also welcome to join me and my friends for drinks or some weekend roadtrip.
My Interests
Get to know new people, practice my French, have a good time.
