I’m a naturally curious person who loves meeting people from different backgrounds and hearing their stories. I believe that every encounter, no matter how brief, can teach us something about the world and about ourselves.

I appreciate culture, art, and the simple beauty of human connection. I love cooking, sharing meals, and experiencing life through the senses. Whether it’s the sound of street musicians in a new city, the taste of a dish I’ve never tried before, or the feeling of getting lost in a conversation that lingers long into the night.

I value kindness, generosity, and in the power of opening our hearts and our doors to others. Some of the most unforgettable moments in my life have come from spontaneous connections and shared experiences with people I never expected to meet.

I also love nature (rivers, mountains, the sea) places that remind us of how small we are and how much there is to explore. Travel, for me, is not just about seeing new places, but about understanding different ways of thinking and learning from the people I meet along the way.

I’m currently pursuing my Master’s in Psychoanalytic Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy in Barcelona

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing, to me, is more than just a place to stay, but a door to cultural exchange, shared learning, and friendships that cross borders. I look forward to meeting fellow travelers and exchanging stories.

Travel? Yes. Stories? Absolutely. Cultural exchange? 100%. Dating? Not on this platform. No judgment toward those who use CS differently, but I’m here for genuine connections, nothing romantic or with ulterior motives. Thanks :)

Interests

I am drawn to art in all its forms, its power to evoke emotion, challenge perception, and capture the essence of human experience. I find inspiration in culture, in the way traditions shape identity, and in the unfiltered curiosity and wonder of children.

Nature is another source of fascination for me. I love spending afternoons by the bodies of water, feeling the rhythm of the sea, or losing myself in the vastness of the mountains. There’s something grounding in the way nature moves at its own pace, indifferent yet inevitably interconnected with us.

Travel is one of my greatest passions. I explore not just to see new places, but to understand how the world works; to broaden my perspective, to engage my senses, to listen to the conversations that unfold in everyday life. I travel to connect with people, to share stories, to observe, to question, and to uncover the deeper reasons behind the way things are.
