About Me

CURRENT MISSION

sharing good time with others

ABOUT ME

I am an easy going and quite sociable person, always keen on sharing experiences with other people about anything, with the perspective of opening up my mind!

I am currently travelling in chile and will go up the carretera austral from villa o higgins until puerto montt, going through chiloe, the araucaria region and valparaiso and santiago where I will fly back home.

My idea of couchsurfing is, when I surf, to get food, cook it and share it with the hosts and their friends, through free discussion and a nice drink of course !

Hoping to catch up with some of you guys in cochrane, coyhaique, puerto aysen, talca...

PHILOSOPHY

living for today, tasting adventure, taking things as they come and turning them as much positively as possible, enjoying life and meeting valuable people, never make same mistake twice...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

I think we all benefit from just sharing, any experience, any ideas on any topic. It would help us eventually to understand each other, I guess !

I could "teach" some French though, if you fancy !
