About Me

ABOUT ME

I am a curious friendly little person, who gets easily overwhelmed by life: wonderful people, colours, rain, sun, plants, cities, rivers everything.

PHILOSOPHY

I think the meaning of life is to make people close to me happy - this is turn makes me happy. Moreover, I try to challenge my beliefs, be greatful, more kind and patient, everyday. Also trying to understand things on many levels (sounds cliche but that's the simplicity of it) In my life I am trying to live as ecologically as I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is an amazing community! You can "couchsurf" spontaneously too, ofcourse (I have also hosted travelers I have met in the city), but this provides safety, transparence and a chance to plan your trips ahead. Most of all, I believe the best way to explore new cities and cultures is with the locals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To mention one, a job as a field assistant in Norway, close to the Arctic Ocean. I got the chance to wander in the wildnerness looking for the lemming's winter nests, swim in the arctic ocean and get to know more about the Sami culture. The landscapes where breathtakingly beautiful.
