ABOUT ME

Traveling is about culture, nature and food, but most of all, it's about people. You can't get to know a country without getting to know its inhabitants. That's why I love couchsurfing so much.

Most of the time, I'm traveling with my boyfriend David, who is a photographer and always takes cool pictures of people and weird things, the kind of pictures that tourists generally don't take. He's also a musician.

I like to explore the world and learn to know everything about the countries I visit. Just so you know: I'll ask you a lot of questions about your country, be prepared! ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

“Objection, evasion, joyous distrust, and love of irony are signs of health; everything absolute belongs to pathology.” (Nietzsche)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've met great people and made some friends for life thanks to couch surfing. It's a window to the world, even when you're not traveling yourself!
