About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Happiness & slow life.

ABOUT ME

I´m a positive person, who loves traveling, meeting nice people, helping them and enjoying life. I like doing lots of things and learning.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and make the most of everything! And share with people.
And of course, be positive, be far from negative people...pessimistic...the so called "toxic people".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Sharing info about my country/city.
Meeting people from the places I visit (great!)
Giving couch if I have time to spend with my guests.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One of my best experiences was to meet Nuria and Guille in California and travel together; thanks to them I had a much greater time there.
Definitely, the best one, when I met CS Amor in Doha (Qatar) and she took me to the main places there. Amazing!!!Now we are close friends.
Also I met a girl from Ho Chi Min City (Vietnam) and she took me to a famous restaurant to try PHO (it´s a Vietnamese soup, yummy yummy!!!).
In Istanbul, I met some guys. Very interesting. They took me to great places, such as Araf Cafe.
CS gives me the chance to meet great and generous people and I love it!
