About Me

I am an open-minded person and I like having fun! I enjoy communicating with different people, both children and adults. :) I am fond of art, especially music, literature, theatre and cinema. I like singing and dancing. I usually read a lot, especially when I have time for it. I adore travelling, it always feels great to visit a new place, to discover a different lifestyle. I like walking very much, exactly walking, just watching around, stopping at unusual places on my way. I love to show others around the city. Another important thing about me is that I am vegetarian :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My whole experience during the exchange semester in Switzerland is probably the one huge amazing thing I've done so far.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm eager to teach languages I'm fluent in, along with some curious local expressions (ever heard of Swiss French?) I can also teach a couple of beauty/style lifehacks or a delicious rice recipe :) Of course, I would love to share my experience of living abroad as an exchange student as well as peculiarities of living in my home country.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like sending postcards, it's a fun and personal way to connect with someone. Otherwise I can bring a souvenir or a specialty from the place I'm currently in, just ask for one ;)

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Switzerland, Vatican City State

Countries I’ve Lived In
