About Me

Expert traveller, party addicted, photography passionate, raver, music-festivaler, art and cat's lover, crazy climber, old swimmer and a nomad, always on the road!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I did the Transiberian RailRoad Trip with a friend and we stayed in a lot of nice places with the most friendly and beautiful people! Thanks to Couchsurfing, we enjoyed our trip more than imagined.
Afterwards, I hosted lots of people in Málaga and Barcelona in Spain and France to give back some kindness to the universe, and it's always been a great experience.
In 2015 while hitchhiking in California I also had the pleasure of meeting people on the way who hosted me or joined me on my travels.

Interests

Reading, photography, travelling, climbing, moving, writing, getting in a plane or simply hitchhiking and a lot of dreaming and swimming.
