CURRENT MISSION

To travel as much as possible, learn languages and experience other cultures by meeting new people and seeing new places

ABOUT ME

I'm not a die-hard, push it to the limits type of traveler. No, I travel more so in a grandmother, panda-bear sort of way. I like to take my time, smell the metaphorical roses. I enjoy good, lengthy conversations over a cup of coffee or what have you, where humorous anecdotes are exchanged while the time disappears.

PHILOSOPHY

"Everything in moderation, including moderation."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

"Couchsurfing gives me hope in humanity," as my good friend said, and I agree. It's a brilliant idea. Unfortunately, I am unable to host at the moment, because I live in a house provided by the school.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

"Then I saw her face/Now I'm a believer/ Not a trace of doubt in my mind." Oh I've seen couchsurfing's face. And I'm definitely a believer.
