CURRENT MISSION

Settling down in New Delhi

ABOUT ME

I recently finished my education and looking for inspiration and new ideas for my future and I am doing it by traveling and looking for a diverse kind of life experiences.

I think of my self as an open-minded, brave, positive and romantic person. I am trying to open my heart, to become a better listener and be true to my self.

I feel that nothing is fixed, also my nature changes constantly.

I enjoy nature, meditation, trekking, good company and good-healthy food.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Beside the inspiring people I met I have found CS very useful to plan my travel and to share information with other members.
