PHILOSOPHY

When you want to give up, remember why you started.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first couchsurfing experience was in Miami with a wonderful peruvian who made me visit the city. Era increible! This day I realized that it was much better to spend some time with locals than to be alone in a hotel room... - We are now real friends. He came in Paris once, my family made him some french dinner ;) I went back to Miami already twice and I know now that i also have a home in Lima, Peru :)
I always meet wonderful and open minded peope through CS, and had the chance to discover secret places that tourists never go! Actually i dont consider myself as a tourist, couchsurfers are travelers, not tourists!!! Im very curious, interested in discovering different cultures, ways of life, ways of thinking...

Also, the Lisboa Street Art Tour i ve join through CS in Portugal was an original and wonderful way to discover the city differently :)
