About Me

CURRENT MISSION (and forever)

Explore new/amazing places and meet new amazing people

ABOUT ME

I consider myself a talkative, funny (and modest) girl! I even would risk saying that I make friends easily, although I have a small close circle of friends, which I love and trust. I like to talk and learn new things and cultures, yet in my personal issues I can be very reserved... On the other hand I have an open young mind. Above all, I always try to listen, understand and respect the others as they are and our different (or not) points of view. My current mission (and hopefully forever) is explore new/amazing places and meet new amazing people.

I used to do research in evolutionary genetics in the faculty I've studied. However, about one year ago I decided to live my youthness as a cabin crew exploring every corner I can before I settle down. In my free time I like to be with my friends and hang around to explore new places. On top of that, in my (normal) previous life I used to practice contemporary dance. I'm not a professional dancer, but dance is one of my passions and I do my best.
The other passion of mine is photography and dogs. I have my own "daughter" Sasha , she is amazing and I miss her a lot!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A friend of mine decided to travel for months and I went to visit him in USA. That was my very first experience as a host in someone's house. I really enjoyed it as it allowed me to see travelling in a different completly perspective.
Unfortunatly, my couch is not available since I don't live in my own house, but if I have free time I can hang out and show you around the city.

My first couchsurfing experience (and only until now) was in California (USA). I really appreaciated it because of the new experience which allowed me to know the local people and places besides enjoying an inexpensive trip.
