About Me

I am a really enthusiastic, energetic woman who is crazy in love with her saxophone and the Balkan music, specially the Turkish 9/8 music, the Bulgarian Horo and their dances. This is why I’m living in the Balkans right now.
I love traveling, reading, dancing and knowing about different cultures.
I am the kind of woman that does what she wants at the moment she feels.
I'm not a religious person but a very spiritual one instead.
I do believe in the power within ourselves to create the kind of life we want. I think our results are created by us and therefore easily modified, the whole power we need to do so is right inside.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think Couchsurfing is a great way to know interesting people with very different backgrounds and cultures. Besides, I do believe in the power of sharing and giving. I've strongly witnessed the more you give, the more you get. I think a world where you can travel and share with amazing people -no money in beetween- is posible. I want to create more of this ancient magic of sharing around me.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music, as a mean of expression, in general, but i'm very fond of Balkan Rom Music.
I prefer independent movies and my favorite genre for books is Sci-Fi.
Favorite writers: Ray Bradbury, Isaac Asimov, Chuck Palahniuk.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To overcome my own fears and limitations to do what everybody else said I couldn't at a certain time: going abroad, riding a motorcycle, playing the sax, traveling alone, scuba diving etc.
So, the most amazing thing I've done in my life is "Not to listen to others and their own limitations".

Teach, Learn, Share

I think the most powerful teaching-learning relationship happens when people are willing to share a little bit about themselves and their inner worlds. That's when magic appears.

What I Can Share with Hosts

The Mexican dishes and beberages I enjoy the most.
The passion of being alive.
