About Me

Curious, open-minded, and passionate about exploring life from different angles. 🌿
I’ve lived in several countries, traveled quite a bit, and love connecting with people from different cultures. I enjoy deep conversations, spontaneous adventures, and quiet evenings by the ocean with a good book.

I’m currently based in the U.S. but travel often — both for work and personal growth. I believe every new place and every person you meet teaches you something important.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe traveling is not just about seeing places — it’s about connecting with people and feeling the spirit of each place through locals’ eyes. Couchsurfing has always been a beautiful way to create meaningful connections while exploring the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand, 2150 A.D. by Thea Alexander, and anything that explores the human mind and spirit.
Music: A wide range — from world music and meditative sounds to jazz and soulful indie vibes.
Movies: I love films that make you feel and think — from deep dramas to inspiring documentaries.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moved to the U.S. on my own and built a new life from scratch — an incredible adventure that keeps unfolding every day. 🌿
