About Me

Hi!! I'm Vicky from Mendoza Argentina. To talk about me it's quite difficult, I'm still learning who I am and what is it that I want to accomplish in life or where I'm going...
To start with something I can say I'm quite a talker but mostly I'm a curiuos person, always asking questions, mostly because I care about people and also because I hate when I don't know something, so the best way to learn is asking...
I like going out in trips to the mountain, I'm a huge fan of mountains and I try to be away of the city and in contact with nature as much as possible, is the place where I feel free, in peace and most important where independence and survival skills come around. The bluest sky and the brightest stars are there, in the middle of The Andes Mountains...
But also being around those I love, those who cares for me is essential...I need a family dinner or a beer with friends in the city once in a while.

Right now I'm planning my first trip to Europe for about 85 days, after 4 years of hardworking I decided to quit my job and have my first adventure alone and really far far away from home. I think it's a once in a life time opportunity, to have new experiences that will probably change me and my thougths. It's a dream that's about to come true!
I believe we are instants, so we have to enjoy the ride, not thinking that much about the future but trying to live the present.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mostly I'm here because I love to travel, to meet new people, shearing experiences and learning about different cultures.
I have never host, but maybe in a near future I will.
Places can be seen not only walking them but also hearing what people have to say!

Interests

Hiking and all mountain sports, though I don't know how to ski, maybe next winter...
I love Art, Pinture and Art History. Also Political Science and I try to learn about Economics...
Food? Is that an interest? Well it is for me! LOL
