Overview
About Me
I love travelling. Every time I visit a new place it's like a breath of fresh air.
Luckily, I found a wonderful man, my boyfriend, and we share the same ideas and way of living. In fact, we left our previous jobs and spent some time in Asia: about 3 months in India (1.5 month in Dharamsala, headquarters of the Tibetan government in exile), Nepal (a couple of weeks) and Thailand (8 months).
I think that sharing ideas with different cultures opens up our mind and allow us to fight against prejudice.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
First of all, it's an interesting way to meet new people and really understand a foreign culture (both the local and the host ones).
Then, it's a cheap way of travelling... especially now that I've just finished to renovate my flat :-)
Finally, I do believe it's really challanging because you need to get used to other people's habits and opinions.
