I study graphic design and try to travel as much as possible.

I'm open and sincere and I think too much and talk a bit too much. I'm a nerd - I love learning and I'm always hungry for knowledge. I secretly dream to obtain every piece of knowledge in the world. (I know that's not possible, but a girl can dream, right? :D)
I'm like to argue and adjust my points of view on many things, because basically it's boring to agree on everything. (Though actually I believe that, as Chekhov said, no one knows the whole truth.)

I travel not to check the things off any lists, but to have new experiences and meet awesome people — seriously, I think people are the first thing that I remember about my travels, every city makes me think of people I met there.
I'm searching for those, who are always searching. For people, who haven't found everything there is about life yet, for those who don't make statements about what's good and what's bad and what's smart and what's stupid

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to meet people from all over the world and to hopefully have some thought-provoking conversations. Basically, I'd like to know how you think and why you think what you think.
