Overview
About Me
I’m sociable and easy to get along with. Sometimes I might sound a bit serious at first, but it’s always with good intentions — I promise! Deep down, I’m honest, caring, and love connecting with new people. It just takes a little time to really get to know me 😄😇🤷🏻♀️
If you want to stay with me:
• Please have at least a few references and a completed profile.
• Please read my profile/home section and mention something about it in your request — it shows me you’re genuinely interested. If not… sorry, but I’ll have to decline 🙃
• Make sure to send me an official request. (If you have a limit on how many requests you can send, better to do it early before your arrival!)
References 💌
I really enjoy receiving polite and honest references. They help me remember you and I love reading different perspectives on our time together. Even better if you leave one in your own language — it makes my profile feel more colourful and international 🌍😇🙏🏽
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I absolutely LOVE traveling, exploring new places, and meeting new people — especially when it comes to discovering hidden gems 🌟. I’m all about tasting the real local food, skipping the tourist traps, having a helping hand when needed, and maybe even making a new friend along the way. And let’s be honest… saving a bit on travel costs doesn’t hurt 😄
A couple of friends told me about Couchsurfing, and I finally joined back in February 2016. Since then, I’ve been on quite the adventure — hosting guests, going on trips, and chasing some long-held travel dreams. I’ve hosted lots of people (though some forgot to leave a reference! 😌), and even outside Couchsurfing, I’ve welcomed friends and friends-of-friends. Nowadays, I mainly host strangers who just might turn into friends ☺️👍🏼
PS: If you’re sending me a “REQUEST TO STAY,” please do me a favor and read my “My Home” section first. If it seems like you haven’t, I’ll have to decline your request — I promise it’s worth the read!
Interests
Music, dancing, eating, watching good films, walking, photography and traveling.
Music, Movies, and Books
I’m into all kinds of music — it just depends on my mood that day 🎶
I could watch movies forever, there are so many I love 🎬
Not really a big fan of books, but I do enjoy diving into fun articles instead 😅
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Let’s save something to chat about later!
Teach, Learn, Share
I can take you on a proper tour — free of charge! My friends and previous CS guests have already approved it 😄
I can teach you how to cook some dishes, and I’d love to learn from you too.
I’m no professional, but I can show you some basic Latin dance moves and be your dance partner 💃🕺
If you like, I can also take some good pictures of you 📸
I can show you my allotment and we can do some chores there, weather and season permitting 🌱
I’m always eager to learn — right now I’m trying to pick up Spanish and play the violin 🎻. Let’s see what you can teach me!
I share my time, kind friendship, and a mix of diverse and thoughtful experiences — plus sometimes non-stop, tearful laughter 🤣😂
What I Can Share with Hosts
• I love having good conversations on all sorts of topics — I can be chatty, but I’m also a great listener 🗣️👂
• Friendship matters to me: sharing time, laughs, and experiences from living in two different countries over the years 🌍😄
• I’m happy to help around the house or garden 🌱🏡 — and if I see I can do a little more, I definitely will!
• I can offer my place in return for hosting me 🛏️✨
• I always leave polite and honest references 📝
• Sometimes I like to surprise guests with small gifts 🎁
• And if I have the time and feel inspired, I might cook some healthy and tasty meals for you 🍳🥗
