I like when life has rhythm — work, movement, conversations, and moments to slow down.
Sport is part of my routine (keeps my head clear), but don’t worry — I won’t start counting reps over breakfast 😄

I travel a lot and prefer discovering places the simple way: wandering through neighborhoods, stopping for coffee, noticing small details, and having conversations that feel natural. I’m calm, reliable, and easy to be around — happy with both an active day out and a relaxed evening at home.
I also have a talent for getting lost in new cities… on purpose, sometimes it’s the best way to find the hidden gems 🗺️😉

When I’m not on business trips, I enjoy hosting as well. I respect personal space, house rules, and clear agreements. I like humor, honesty, and people who don’t try too hard to impress — being yourself works best.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because traveling is about people and real experiences 🌍
I want to see places through local eyes — and maybe accidentally end up on a street with the best coffee you didn’t know existed ☕️

Interests

City walks, exhibitions, photography, cinema, cafés, short trips outside the city, staying active, and exploring places at a human pace 🚶‍♂️📸☕️
I like moving around, but I also enjoy slow moments — a good coffee, a quiet street, or a casual chat. Bonus points if there’s a pastry involved 🥐

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy music that sets the mood — from chill and soul to electronic.
In films, I like thought-provoking sci-fi and stories that stick with you. Arrival and Inception are my favorites 🎬
I read sometimes — mostly reflective, practical or motivational books😌
I also enjoy talking about movies or music if someone wants to nerd out a bit 🎧

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy exchanging perspectives about travel, everyday life, and how people live in different cultures.
I’m good at noticing details, listening, and having practical yet natural conversations. Basically, I like learning small things from people everywhere I go — and maybe sharing a laugh or two along the way 😏

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good vibes, easy conversations, and a calm but curious presence 😌
I’m happy to share a relaxed moment, explore the city together, or just enjoy a coffee while swapping stories ☕️
