Overview
About Me
I am a psychology student, I am currently living in Cambridge in a shared house with lovely people. I enjoy being here very much, yet, I try to spend time travelling during university holidays. I usually travel alone, I like to discover new cultures and meet new people. I'm also doing a study on different social welfare systems around the world. I am creating myself a non-profitable organisation here in the UK to help homeless families and people in need for drug rehabilitation who are lacking of shelter.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I heard of couchsurfing couple years ago when I was planning a backpacker trip to asia , a friend recommended me the app and I downloaded it to try it. Unfortunately the borders with Asia closed due to Covid-19.
As the borders reopened I am travelling to Asia this summer and I would like to finally give it a try and stay in locals houses, I think it would be enriching and a great occasion to exchange experiences and learn more about the culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I believe that the most amazing thing I have done is to decide to focus my career in helping others. This have aslo showed me that I am not the only one willing to help. I was pleasantly surprised to have so many people involved in the project.
