About Me

I am fulfilling my life dream and I am hitchhiking to India and later back home but through other side of the globe.

I am hitch-hiker, windsurfing and skiing instructor.
I would describe myself as a spontaneous and calm person. ;) I love meeting new cultures. Till now I visted 45+ countries.
I am a Buddhist vegetarian - I will not cook/buy meat, but if offered I will eat it. However I don't eat sea food and fish.
I think I can endure a lot. Sleeping on the floor is not a problem for me. I slept on the floor of Indian trains, took shower with a bucket and barrel. Not to mention countries rivers and lakes, even in ~0C.

I finished Energy Engineering studies, but recently I was working in IT.

===ESPANOL=== Yo hablo Espanol un poco.
Estoy cumpliendo el sueño de mi vida y voy a hacer autostop a la India y luego regreso a casa, pero por el otro lado del mundo.

Soy autoestopista, instructor de windsurf y esquí.
Me describiría como una persona espontánea y tranquila. ;) Me encanta conocer nuevas culturas. Hasta ahora he visitado más de 45 países.
Soy vegetariana budista: no cocino ni compro carne, pero si me la ofrecen la como. Sin embargo, no como marisco ni pescado.
Creo que puedo soportar mucho. Dormir en el suelo no es un problema para mí. Dormí en el suelo de los trenes indios, me duché con un balde y un barril. Sin mencionar los ríos y lagos de los países, incluso a unos 0 °C.

Terminé los estudios de Ingeniería Energética, pero recientemente estuve trabajando en TI.
