Life is full of surprises/twists/turns and I am in love with it all! I hope to be able to touch more peoples' lives, make a difference where I can and get out of it alive essentially! I have a feeling that won't happen XD

Learning about people and their lives is fascinating to me- not in the creepy way. It is always so humbling and freeing to travel and have new experiences, as well as meeting new people. More recently I am staying more focused on myself, looking after my mental health and wellbeing. Having done my fair share of travel, I realise that I want to put into practice what I have learnt and make sure that I give back too.

Returning to live in London after 4 years in Brazil, after travelling and keeping busy with my teaching job there. I fell in love with the nature there especially, there is so much to see and do, so so gorgeous.

I have two dogs, incredibly loveable which I adopted in Brazil. I run a business in South West London - dog care and am very passionate about providing the best possible care for them. It is a mad passion of mine and it does bring me a lot of joy as well as pain of course! So many stories!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've done Workaway in Brazil before and Romania, they were exciting experiences. This time I'm on Couchsurfing because honestly right now I need to be! The move from Brazil has been really expensive so also looking for a way to keep costs down.

I will be arriving in Amsterdam with my two dogs from Brazil and need a place to stay for a week or two while I get them ready for the next leg of travel.

I am terrified of bringing them over in the hold of the plane and when we arrive, I want to make sure we have a nice and safe space to get settled before we continue on the journey.

I do love meeting people and having deep conversations about everything and anything so that helps to fit in pretty much everywhere too!

Interests

I got into jiu-jitsu while in Brazil (learning for my blue belt )

I love to draw mandalas - find it so relaxing!

Big fan of barefoot walking in the grass.

A different perspective on life from a crazy Romanian girl!

Cooking! My favourite dish to cook is cheesy oven roasted mushrooms.
