About Me

I like traveling, but I only recently discovered and started to do it. I work as a psychologist in a rehabilitation center for hearing disabled children, but I consider myself more and more “me” when I do not wear any social role. I love to write and I hope one day my stories will be published and my drama-plays will be performed. People were always a great gift and an inspiration for me, but not always I know how to get in touch with them, because I'm an introvert person and usually I need more time to get close... I think being friendly and close is something that does not depend on words, but on a way of being.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m here because I want to know different people from different places in this incredible and amazing world around me.
I didn't have any guests yet, because I'm not available for now, but I'm really curious about how I'll feel about the experiences which are waiting to be lived through couch surfing. As soon as I will get back home, in Brasov, I'll open my door for people :)

Interests

I love mountains and especially in the summer time I do hiking. I've been in many Romanian mountains until now and I'd like also to climb mountains from other countries.
Traveling is one of the most important aspect of life, in my opinion and although I didn't travel so much by now (because of the fear of new, I guess), is the only thing that can make me truly happy and fulfilled. Why? Because when I'm on the road I am forced to come back constantly at the only home that exists for real: me and my heart. It is a great (and difficult) thing that I'm still learning to do.
I like to sit in quiet places, with a cup of coffee or tea and read, nature always helps me to reconnect with my inner self, the sea makes me feel easy... I like children because they are spontaneous and we can learn so many things from them.
Two years ago I discovered that I love cooking (especially muffins and cupcakes, for which my friends are very grateful and happy).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I haven't done many things that could be categorized as such "amazing". I think almost everything I do when I can be totally "here and now" is amazing.

But one of the things which I/m proud for is that I've come in Slovakia with an Erasmus mobility at 29. Although all the people around me are 20 I feel great about everything. It is another opportunity to discover new important aspects of my being.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a really good listener, but I don't know if I could teach someone that :)
I want to learn to be opened, courageous, happy (there are things that only I can to do it for me, but I really think that people around me have an important role in achieving this).
I want to learn English and have the courage to speak it...
