ABOUT ME

I'm a fun easy going person with a great passion for music, travelling and meeting friends :). I'm a bit (ok, a lot) shy at first, but after a while I tend to relax and let the fun begin....

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I have ever heard was the sound of my son's first cry, right after he was born. An amazing slap in the face!!

Teach, Learn, Share

Maybe we can exchange info on bands, share some music, watch some footie and drink a good pint of beer :) I'm also a good dancer, so maybe we can go dancing and I can teach some local rythms, haha! I also love to bake and cook, so new recipes are always welcome...:) Plus, I think that we can always share and learn something good with people who cross our path, independently of skills or talents.
