About Me

I'm a mixture of a business woman and a hippie trying to find the balance between the two extremes. I get energized and motivated by other people but I'm not the one in the center of the attention. I love helping out but due to current turbulence in life I unfortunately cannot host guests right now. One day I hope I can!

I'm easygoing as long as you don't try to drag me to the shady side of the terrace. Addicted to the sun and rhythm.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I tried couchsurfing for the first time in summer 2016 for meeting people abroad. I find it a very neat way of connecting and as it allows you to offer your company and act as a local guide too (not only hosting) it gives you a great opportunity to have a piece of the international world near you - even when you're not travelling. And when you are, what's a better way to get to experience a new city or place than with a local host?

Interests

Music, love, encounters. Music, travelling, spiritual discoveries. Music, real adult life and work though, arts. Music, dancing, languages and warm hearts. Oh, and music.

Music, Movies, and Books

Right now LP. Always RHCP, Alanis Morissette and No Doubt. From latin to hard rock anything that resonates in you :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hmmm... Can't think of just one, but I do appreciate all my travels and stays abroad.

I wish I could cook, but nope... So my sharings are more on the conversational or musical side :)
