CURRENT MISSION

See it all, try it all, meet them all :)

ABOUT ME

A world traveler - love seeing new places, meeting new people and collecting memories :)

PHILOSOPHY

I have a favorite quote. It's by Mark Twain and it goes like this: "Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear."
My life is pretty much based on it :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a huge advocate for the couchsurfing project! I constantly encourage all my friends to give it a try, because it really is THE best way to travel!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I host, I surf, I even went to one of the local meetings, when I was surfing in NYC; so it's safe to say I'm all in!

Interests

Movies, history, music, books, people... I'll pretty much try it all :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Where should I begin... my library card was always full (now so is the Kindle), my iPod needs more storage and I probably shouldn't know that much about the movie-hopping ;)
In general, I like books that focus more on the characters than the story itself. I'm more fascinated by how the circumstances influence and change people, than what those circumstances are per se.
As for the music - I like the good one, which for me usually means classical, country and soft rock; but there are some pop, soul and R&B songs on my playlist, mostly oldies though. I like nostalgic, powerful melodies and meaningful lyrics.
I'm a huge movie fan (I swear I could live in the cinema) and it's about the quality of the acting for me, rather than the genre. However, I'm not a huge fan of horror movies - they seem to be too predictable for me and therefore not scary.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hard to say, I'm always excited about new things, amazed by many.
I think, the fact that I've managed to see most of Europe during my teenage years and have friends from all continents (ok, besides Antarctica :D) is quite amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I strongly believe that all the people we encounter in our lives show up there for a reason and I'm a lifelong learner :)
