About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current life mission is to immerse myself in exploring the countries farthest from my hometown, discovering remote places, and delving into diverse cultures. As I embark on these journeys, I encounter the challenges of travel in various ways, seeking to live authentic experiences and continue my own journey of self-discovery.

I'm always open to encountering different viewpoints and worldviews, even those that may be completely opposed to my own. I believe that by exposing myself to diverse perspectives, I can enrich my understanding of the world and grow as an individual. Each encounter and experience offers me the opportunity to learn something new and expand my horizons in meaningful ways.

ABOUT ME

I'm on an exhilarating journey to unravel the mysteries of life. After spending what felt like an eternity chained to a desk in a mundane office, I decided to break free from the monotony and chase the thrill of new experiences.

Now, I've embarked on a mission to collect moments, not things. My days are no longer measured by the clock but by the depth of connections forged with fellow adventurers. I've traded the confines of corporate walls for the boundless horizons of the world, eager to soak in the wisdom of every culture and the stories of every traveler.

Consider me a youthful soul dancing to the rhythm of the universe, longing to break free from the shackles of societal norms and dive headfirst into the vast ocean of possibilities that await.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to know people with time to travel arround the world, with a young spirit to begin a new trip or a new project and share my own experience.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had been hosting people for more than 1,5 years without stop, learning how to deal with nice people from different cultures, every of them with different objectives for their trip, some of them amazing and some of them not, but all interested to know and open mind.

Interests

I'm driven by an insatiable curiosity to delve deeper into the vast tapestry of our world, eager to uncover the myriad experiences waiting to be embraced and the stories waiting to be shared by fellow travelers.

I have a profound love for water sports, finding solace in the rhythmic dance of the waves while surfing, windsurfing, diving, or sailing. The ocean is my playground, and I relish every opportunity to immerse myself in its embrace.

Adventure courses through my veins, pushing me to push my limits through thrilling activities like climbing, rafting, mountain biking, trail running, and rappelling. The rush of adrenaline fuels my soul as I seek out new challenges and conquer them with gusto.

But my interests extend far beyond the adrenaline rush. I'm passionate about sustainable travel, intrigued by the art of journeying without the burden of money, and fascinated by the prospect of growing my own food and mastering new languages along the way.

I long to witness the breathtaking beauty of nature in all its glory – from the mesmerizing sunsets painting the sky with hues of orange and pink to the awe-inspiring sight of stars twinkling in the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean. I dream of traversing the icy expanses of Antarctica or the North Pole, marveling at the majesty of dolphins leaping through crystal-clear waters, and exploring vast beaches adorned with lush rainforests.

Above all, I'm driven by a deep-seated desire to expand my horizons by visiting new countries, each one offering a unique tapestry of culture, history, and natural wonders waiting to be discovered.
