About Me

Wow, It's been a while! CS is even paid now. Which, I think it's for the best. My last cs experiences weren't the best, not really the CS vibe anymore! Let's see how this is going.

***CURRENTLY IN SOUTHEAST ASIA WITH MY BOYFRIEND***

Well... I'm a very positive person. Really into getting to know people from all over and having a great time. Not exactly a party-person but very excited about new adventures!

I am crazy about Asia. Specially Japan and Thailand. I love to get to know people from all over and make new friends. I find it the best when I meet a cs friend a second time. Being a couchsurfer provided me many amazing moments with people I'd never meet otherwise.

Im a dog person. Crazy about animals and nature. Waterfalls are my weak spot. I don't get to go very othen as I live in a massive urbanized area.

PHILOSOPHY
Wherever you are, be ALL there!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love getting to know other humans, their stories and lives. I spend 50% of my time trying to understand why we act in certain ways... try to understand social relations...
Knowing different cultures makes me understand myself better.
We need more real couchsurfers in the world!

My best experiences in CS certainly happened sitting on a couch, with a few drinks and lots of chatting. The better hosts were not only willing to show me around their place but also got to know me better.

Interests

I'm not the type who likes small talk. Ask me about the wheather and soon I'll be wondering about your first memory or the best moment you have ever lived.
Getting to know others inspire me to make a better life for myself. I also love sharing my stuff!

Music, Movies, and Books

I 'd love to say I read as much as I wish I did... but... Im so lazy when it comes to reading! But usually I like reading about stuff.... from culture, faith, the way things work...

I'm really not fussy, and I can enjoy any moment... but if I was the Dj, we would hear to a bunch of synthpop and dreampop... Passion Pit, Cut Copy, Futurecop!, Miami Horror, Bag Raiders, CHVRCHES, the list goes on...
oh.. recently I found out about Kpop and their crazy colorful dances... that is pure joy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The world is amazing, how can I pick only one?

Watching the stars in an isolated island in Thailand. Lightpainting with friends during the night there.

Seeing Kyoto on a rainy day, from inside the ancient city. The lanters being reflected on the wet floor made me travel back in time.

Drinking and laughing, sharing stories with amazing people I met in different places through Couchsurfing. People who accepted me in their lives, in such a warm way. This totally changed me.
