CURRENT MISSION

Always learning, being curious of new people, places and cultures.

ABOUT ME

Oh this is difficult!! But I'll have a go: I'm curious and always trying to improve myself, I appreciate a good conversation, spending time in nature, meeting friends/strangers, going off the beaten tourist track, being able to help people in any way I can, meet and learn about different cultures, dance, music, read and so much more!
And I'm a composer and musician, so I always enjoy seeing the artistic sides of life.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy your life, do good, and share what you love. I believe that you create your own universe. If you want to live in a world full of life and love, do it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surfed a few couches and hosted just as many before I actually discovered the incredible couchsurfing, and then a whole new world opened up.... Since then me and my husband try to participate in couchsurfing as often as possible; to travel and meet people, or to break up our everyday-life with meeting people coming our way.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Absolutely wonderful! I think the concept is great and it's a fantastic way to make the world a smaller and friendlier place!

Interests

I love good music, dancing - particular salsa and other Latin dances, backpacking, hiking, sports and any outdoor activities in beautiful nature, learning languages, new discoveries, good films, books and art. And did I mention traveling??
