Overview
About Me
Since i was in high school I knew that something must be done with our world, then I decided that I may offer my services for a greater good: I quickly understood that with an open dialogue many problems can be solved, but it also made me realize that I have to learn day by day, so I started learning German, economy and psychology.
Sometimes, people say that I am too driven and ambitious, I let you decide if that's true or not
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
The purpose here is to meet with people in order to understand their point of view. I want to discover others passions,lives and goals.
Also, Couchsurfing comes with the immense advantage of obliging me to dive in the culture and language of the one person I meet.
I won't lie, besides the ones mentioned above, I want to improve my German and ease the costs of traveling.
Interests
I was raised in a city in which movies were paramount in cultural life (Cluj-Napoca with its Transylvanian International Film Festival). I love talking about good movies and ideas who can ignite both my interlocutor and myself's imagination and passions.
Besides that, I love learning about other cultures and personal experiences. I strongly believe that I can learn something from everyone and that other individuals possess a huge amount of useful know-how, the only secret is to listen and ye shall discover :)
