About Me

I'm sociable, curious, open-minded and easy-going. I try to improve each and every day to become the best version of myself.
I am very passionate about traveling and about meeting new people and learning about their culture/philosophy on life. I love long, meaningful conversations and hearing the wonders people learn about themselves by stepping out of their comfort zone. I embody kindness, friendship, and curiosity.

PHILOSOPHY

"This is your life. Do what you love, and do it often. If you don’t like something, change it. If you don’t like your job, quit. If you don’t have enough time, stop watching TV. If you are looking for the love of your life, stop; they will be waiting for you when you start doing things you love. Stop over analyzing, life is simple. All emotions are beautiful. When you eat, appreciate every last bite. Open your mind, arms, and heart to new things and people, we are united in our differences. Ask the next person you see what their passion is, and share your inspiring dream with them. Travel often; getting lost will help you find yourself. Some opportunities only come once; seize them. Life is about the people you meet and the things you create with them, so go out and start creating. Live your dream, and wear your passion. Life is short."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’ve only hosted once and been hosted once.
After many years away from the platform, I’m back with the desire to reconnect with the world and the wonderful humans who travel through it.

It's a great way to meet new/local people and make new friends. It's also a nice way of "pay it forward"

Interests

I love design, photography and art in general, but not only. If I am registered on CouchSurfing it's because I love discovering cultures (languages, food, history, etc.), through travels but also by meeting people. So while not traveling, I will love to meet people from everywhere.
