I am a university student studying in Europe for the semester. I will be based in Alicante, Spain for the next 5 months. I want to travel to as many different places as possible given my budget. I have seen many beautiful places in my life, primarily in Australia, and I want to continue this phase of my life in Europe.
I am 21 years old, speak English, Portuguese, Spanish, and some Italian. I am a very active person that always needs to be doing something new. I would love to have a tour guide in a city to show me some cool sites, but if I dont have one I will figure it out on my own.
How I Participate in CS
I want to share my travel stories with other CS and those who host me.

Live in the moment. Don't regret something that once made you happy.

Too many to list here. I like many.
Types of People I enjoy
I enjoy open-minded people that are careful and low maintenance. People that enjoy living their life given what they have. I am generally accepting of many kinds of people.
Teach, Learn, Share
I know 4 languages and I am always willing to teach people some basic phrases. I have also travelled a good amount in my life and can give some good suggestions or stories.
One Amazing Thing I've Seen or Done
Climbed and repelled down a 150 foot cliff into the Blue Mountain forest of Australia. I also skydived over the Sydney beaches. I also went scuba diving in the great barrier reef and encountered a Tiger Shark within 15 feet of me. I have also camped out in the Florida Everglades for 5 days and 5 nights in the middle of the swamp with a group of 9 other students.
Opinion on the CouchSurfing.org Project
Its amazing. Great idea to share knowledge and experiences with one another!
This summary is not a replacement for reading references; it's a quick summary to help you get started. At a glance, you can see how many references a member has, and how many of them are positive, neutral, and negative.
In the second line, you'll see how many references came from people who hosted this member, surfed with them, and traveled with them. These numbers won't always add up to the total: some references are not categorized, and some may be categorized as more than one thing.
When viewing this summary, don't jump to conclusions! Things that are negative for one person may be positive for another, and vice versa. It's important to read references carefully and evaluate what that information means to you.
Another great Couchburner. Active and sociable, always looking for a new adventure. Will take you away early in the morning to discover the playa and stick with you till sunrise slowly takes over the playa and you're busting out a final move.
