About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Do more of what makes you happy

ABOUT ME

I'm a cheerful person with a positive outlook on life; sociable and outgoing, I enjoy the company of people and I love to get inspiration from them. I enjoy music, good food and exciting adventures - all things that seem to come along with travelling.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is about the little things, make them count.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted three times and also met with some other CS while they were in the city. I would love to meet new people through the CS community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've heard so many amazing stories about it, and they are turning to be true - judging by my recent first experiences with hosting:). Unofficially - I've been also hosting friends of friends during musical events (gigs, festivals) in the area and it was great:)

Interests

I'm a massive fan of computer games and British TV shows. In my free time I also play with my cat, meet with friends, doodle comics and draw illustrations or bake muffins and cupcakes. Making travel plans and dreaming of places to visit takes some of that free time as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing Vincent van Gogh's intensely beautiful Starry Night and his other paintings at the Musee d'Orsay moved me to tears.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you a thing or two about languages or we could discuss literary nuances or social situations and media contexts. Or we could just simply bake cupcakes (so many recipes, so little time!) while listening to music and having a laugh, up to you.
