About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Making the world a better place

ABOUT ME

I get my blood pumping by interacting with lovely awesome intriguing people, enjoying cultural exchanges, coffee, sunny days, rainy days, skying, nature, and probably most of all ... traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm focused on leaving the world a better place and I do that through personal growth, optimism, volunteering, and pretty much all my activities are focused towards this. I believe in the good in people, in kindness and love. Traveling is at the core of my existence and I believe there is nothing that makes you richer than experiences in this beautiful world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a host or a guest, depending of my location. If I'm hosting, I like to interact with you, to get to know each other, to learn about where you come from. I'd like to walk you around Cluj-Napoca, have a coffee/glass of wine, enjoy a nice talk about great ideas that sparkle your interest. :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I still consider myself relatively new on Couchsurfing :) I experienced Copenhagen and Budapest through Couchsurfing and it was awesome! Meeting danish people and talking about whatnot, listening to good music.... It was a great plus for the trip. Oh, and Budapest... I've visited the city before but enjoying the local touch on my trip, that was something amazing.
