About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn French

ABOUT ME

visited 3 states (1.33%).
Because of my early education, I'm used to being very sociable and very curious about the planet we live in.
I like to sing; since I was a 4 years old my mom took me to a lot of competitions, on which I got some prizes yes.
I used to play in a rock blues cover band songs by Eric Clapton, Beatles, Kenny Wayne covers and so on. Used to also be the leading vocal of a progressive rock cover band where we played stuff from Porcupine Tree, Radiohead, Opeth.
I may seem a bit of a quiet type of girl for the first... uhm let's say 10 minutes? After that, if the person which I've just met lets me approach him/her I have no problem in communicating my exact emotions at the time.
Used to be involved in a NGO, People to People International, chapter Roman and AEGEE, Roman. We were the hosts of our first Youth in Action project 1.1 and I met people from Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Lithuania, Malta and Turkey. The project was about a healthy life and we were ranked among the 1st 3 in Romania to receive the funds for the project, but we really worked our backs to get the fond.
Now I live in London and I work with people with learning disabilities :).

So that's my active life in a nutshell.

PHILOSOPHY

The world surrounding you it's just a mirror, if you laugh they'll laugh too, if you think you're in some way, either positive or negative, they'll make you feel that way, until you will be aware of this and start thinking positive, until everything your mind creates, materializes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live in a shared house with 4 guys! Really nice ones as well. We have 2 sofas in our living room, unfortunately not extendable! If you don't like that we also have a big garden where ultimately we could host you if you have a tent!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Amazing... went to Paris with my ex-desk-mate from high-school and stayed at several people. Great people! We stayed there for about 3 weeks... It was the best experience so far.

Interests

I like music, movies, books, to play cards with my friend ( not for money, just for fun). I like learning new things about cultures, history,people... I am a curious person regarding these things.
