About Me

ABOUT ME

I have deep curiosity for life and people. I believe everyone of us has a potential to be discovered and lived. The same philosophy I apply when I work with individuals and teams.

My body and soul is alive when I dance, I have been dancing since 5, and life took me to Denmark and then to China and currently I live in Portugal.

I discovered a recent passion of growing plants, which has become a huge source of joy. I spend weekends going hiking, to the ocean or meeting people I love.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the spirit of exchange that isn´t necessarily monetary. I see it as beautiful process of giving and receiving, yet in way might be zoomed out in time.

Interests

One of the best places in the world is the dance floor, I love to dance contemporary, salsa and bachata. I enjoy traveling, going to places, exploring on my own, talking to locals and immersing into local life and growing the horizon.

I love people puzzles and like to solve interpersonal or personal frictions.

I am passionate about chess and qigong.

I love cooking, especially trying dishes of different cuisines.
