About Me

CURRENT MISSION

live every second fully

ABOUT ME

I love to explore new places and to improvise in the way I spend my time. Like the feeling when you just walk on the street without plan and direction and you hear your favourite song at outdoor concert or you see a rainbow in a fountain... I'm really an extrovert and don't like to stay alone, could go out every evening

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm freshly new to this community but hope to get new experience soon.

Interests

I need my life to be intense and full of activities. My passion is dancing, I'm eager to learn all the styles in the world, but what I did is salsa, sport dancing and Bulgarian folclore dances. I also practise Japanese martial arts - iaido and jodo, which are quite unknown but part of the traditional middle age schools where the student should master all kind of weapons, but also calligraphy and tea ceremony. For me martial arts are a way to open your mind and improve selfcontrol. Something else? Mounatains! I love hiking, the smell of pines, little crooked paths and blackberries! And not at the last place, I'm fascinated by my work, I'm doing a research in human genetics, searching for genes involved in hereditary neurodegenerative diseses. There are also more, climbing, horse riding, yoga...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hard to say..ok, one moment I remember vividly is in Athens, on the top of a hill opposite of the Acropolis during the night - it was a breathtaking view!
And also another - a friend of mine lost his cross necklace at a lake, and then after 1 year I found it just by chance.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, i could learn you dancing, or show you something from the martial art I train. Or may be if you want a clone I could help ;)
