I'm outgoing, curious, chipper, passionate about arts and culture, driven by people and ever so inspired by new places and unique personalities who cross my way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined CS because I'm convinced that it is an incredible network that gives a whole new dimension to travelling. I believe the best way to see the world is through the eyes of a local. The people is always what I remember best from my travels.
The connections I've made here so far have been fantastic, some of them flourished over time.
I appreciate travellers who put a thought into their words. Copied and pasted messages are replied accordingly, messages to girls bearing a different name than my own are not replied at all. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

My taste for music is diverse and determined by my current mood. Depending on a day, I may turn to jazz, indie rock, electro pop or classical. I love good film music and good dance music. And oldies. I like to start my days off with Paolo Nutini and finish them with Elysian Fields. I would never miss a RHCP concert in town. Nor I would a "Les Misérables" production. :)

I love old-fashioned, cozy cinemas. Watching a movie in a cinema is for me the best way to enjoy it, however I will never say 'no' to a good pyjamas movie night with friends or family. I'm never ever bored of rewatching my favourite movies time and time again. I watch and prepare for the Academy Awards every year. I have always wanted to go to drive-in theatre - it's on my list. By the way, I love lists too. :P

I always have a book on me. I've studied French literature. I've been raised by Agatha Christie's lover. When I was a child, I read "The Bullerby Children" 14 times. Right now, I'm into travel and personal growth books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

being a geisha for a day and participating in oharai purification ceremony in a shinto shrine - the most wonderful cultural adventure I have ever experienced

night stargazing under a truly remarkable sky in the middle of Atacama - the most breathtaking thing I have ever seen

participating in local student life while on exchange in Belgium - the most insane thing I have ever done

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a smile, a laugh, a dance and definitely, my sweet tooth. I can spread onto you my dynamic approach to life, my progressive love for travel and I will easily dwell on everything I am passionate about. I am a culture vulture but no history expert, though, so the travellers are often much more educated on the local history than myself.
