Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING LANGUAGE LOVER gatherings. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Bogota, Colombia couchsurfing experience was AMAZING. My host (Alexandra) took us in as if we were family and treated us like gold. Alexandra and her parents showed us the "ins and outs", and we all bonded as if we knew each other for many years. We ate like a family and enjoyed great memories together. Simply, a trip of a lifetime.
Music, Movies, and Books
Languages, philosophy, love and how to raise children. Music: bachata! reggae and anything that has a rhythm/beat I can vibe to. :)
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I lived and volunteered in the favela (slums) of Rio, Brazil.(specifically Xerem, Rio) This experience proved that living with just the raw essentials and being with family is all that we need in life. Happiness comes from within not from the materials we buy.
Teach, Learn, Share
Something I'd like to share? - Be as considerate, positive and patient as much as you can.. whether it be when couchsurfing or not. - Being grateful and appreciative gets us all far. I also believe gratitude leads to inner joy.
My Interests
Philosophy Volunteering Languages Stories (non-fiction) Dancing (all types) Cooking (Italian ;) Eating (all cultures, vegan) Hiking Adrenaline rushed moments ( skydiving, cliff jumping) I am a family guy. So, many things revolving around my loved ones.. Maybe you will meet them. :)
