„We travel not to escape life but for life not to escape us."

Im coming to Auckland, New Zealand, on the 4th of November, and would feel blessed to find nice peeps to hang out with, explore the new surroundings, since I wanna find a job and stay for quite a while. If you’re keen, I can’t wait to hear from you! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like meeting people from all over the world, meeting their cultures and their lifestyle. I love traveling so I'm always happy to get to know people from different countries!
Moreover, I'm here to discover all the amazing places that are not easily found by tourists and backpackers and to explore the 'local' life.

At the moment, I’m traveling myself and until I’ve settled down somewhere, I can’t host you. As soon as I’ll have some free space, everybody’s more than welcome again! :)

Interests

I'm totally into living a healthy lifestyle, enjoy going to the gym and cooking and eating... Having all this around makes me the happiest girl in the world! ;)
Besides I like hiking, Yoga, spending time in the nature, reading, everything that is making me feel creative and chilling with a tea or coffee and talk about everything and nothing :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Which music I listen to?-always depends on my mood :) right now I’m chanting mantras all day long haha Indian life got me!

Favourite movies are definitely action movies, marvels and documentaries....

My favourite author definitely is Paulo Coelho. However, I’m reading quite a lot. Recent reads the four agreements, Veronika decides to die, the subtle art of not giving a fuck, mastery of love, the power of now, marching powder (I love books that are based on a true story)... recently I’m busy with the autobiography of a yogi.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I quit my job to travel!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am conscious about the environment and try to not use much plastic and things like that. I did my yoga teacher training, I know how to do a sound bath or body massage with singing bowls (sound healing therapy experience). And I can share workouts and recipes for living a healthy and natural fitness lifestyle. :)
