About Me

"All you have is what you are, and what you give" (Ursula K. Le Guin)

Mindful human looking to increase his impact. Experienced marketeer growing purposeful brands. Passionate volunteer supporting causes that reduce inequities. Excited learner reading about tech, science, business, culture and more.

I have left my home, my job and my life in Bucharest to explore the beautiful mountains of Latin America. My aim is to connect with nature, find amazing people, get a glimpse of different cultures, learn new skills, see different facets of the world and, overall, slow down and get a better view of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking for open-minded people who would love to contribute to my journey, either by hosting me, teaching me languages, guiding me or being along side me. I am currently travelling towards home to recharge, close this journey that I've started a while ago and open up for the new chapters, therefore I am open to meet new people and bring my energy to new places as this journey closes and another one opens.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: we can talk from the history of rock or hip-hop to knowing every lyric from Taylor Swift's new album, my musical taste spans a wiiiide range.

Books: Beloved by Toni Morrison is the best read I can ever recommend. Next would be The Dispossessed by Ursula K Le Guin.

Movies: anything from Mothy Python and definitely DARK as a TV show.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quit my job, sold my car, left my rented apartment and started a journey across Latin America.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am generally regarded as knowing lots of useless-but-interesting-when-not-sad things and I do love to share them a lot.

I have stronger footholds in music, psychology, politics, activism, pop-culture, so I'm happy to talk about any of these in more depth.

I love any kind of argumented conversation that can bring me new perspectives or enhance my life.
