Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Nowadays everything is becoming a business and travelling is one big industry. It makes it very difficult to get an authentic culture experience, meet genuine locals who want to share their time and space with you without a bill. Even tho Couchsurfing is not what it was in BC times (Before COVID) it is still the place where this connection is available and I'm grateful for it. The experience I've had for many years using this app made my travels an unforgettable journey. I've learnt so much from you, the locals and others like me, the hardcore travelers - hobos and tramps.

You are the reason I haven't lost all hope and faith in humanity yet 🙏🏼

Interests

I can find something interesting in pretty much anything, I love to try new things, meet new people and cultures. I like deep chats, exchange stories and life/travel experience. I'm into nature and cuisine, despite working in the kitchen for a couple of years I still enjoy cooking and always happy to cook together.
On the other hand I enjoy sports or chill hangout, I don't party too much but always consider an invitation haha :)
ping-pong and football, not much into video games but love a good board game.. I guess I can be nerd.. or a geek too haha. love science and psychology , and can talk about it for hours . Humans will never cease to fascinate me as well as "life" itself.
