My hitchhiking and couchsurfing trip

In about 9 hours I'm starting a two-weeks trip around center-southern-Europe: France, Switzerland, Italy, Austria, (maybe) Hungary and Czech Republic. It's a brake from my work in Rotterdam and a good opportunity to recharge my energies for the second semester.

This time I decided to make it a bit more challenging and special: hitchhiking and couchsurfing.

For that reason, I'll be updating this blog twice a week (if I get access to the web) to tell where I am and what is going on.

I intent to meet new people, visit different places (including random small towns and mountains), talk with different people (both young and old) and be curious, learn and be open, take some risks too!

At the CouchSurfing Project website, there is an interesting quote, and I liked it:

"We make a better world by opening our homes, our hearts, and our lives. We open our minds and welcome the knowledge cultural exchange makes available. In sharing important moments, deep and meaningful connections cross oceans, continents and cultures. "

Ready to hit the road!
