Overview
About Me
First, I love to backpack. I guess when I started backing I became more open minded and easy going.
I'm too curious about different opinions and I enjoy learning anything new from others!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
When I decided to backpack around Latin America, I got a CS account. Since then, I've never couchsurfed... I thought hostels would be an easier option. So I had the chance to make great friends across the world...
Then I started hosting many friends in Brazil and then going to their places (Mexico City, Montevideo, Buenos Aires...)
And that was so much fun! There's no better way to truly know a place than having a local friend around!
Now I'm back to CS and hopefully I'll have great experiences!
When I travel, I love to see and understand how a city works. I try to take every chance to learn something and that's why I take every free time to travel around.
