Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
completing my phd!
ABOUT ME
I am in the middle of a great phd program and my goal is to travel around to see as much of Europe and the States as I can. I like talking about history, arts and architecture. And I like listening to people's stories.
I like couchsurfing because it makes every trip different. I never take it as a "free acommodation" - it is new friends, emotions, new jokes and impressions. Oh, and I very rarely travel as "just a tourist". Most of my trips have either friends' visit or some purpose involved.
PHILOSOPHY
More traveling! More exciting adventures! More unbelievable situations to tell grand children in 40 years about!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
As currently I have so to say no home, I can not invite you to stay at my place - which is sad. Though I would really love to. But I still can help you with sightseeing in London. And we could just have a nice chaat with a cup of Earl Grey:)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've stayed in Firenze, Italy, with couchsurfers - it was really great experience! I really feel inspired and motivated to participate more in the project. I adore meeting new people - but even more than that, sayig in contact after=)
My two other experiences in Brussels and Amsterdam were amazing! I really loved my hosts, they are my friends now.
Interests
I am interested in Fine Arts, mostly paintings. I like jazz and good wine.
There are of course many other things which inspire my or make curious or which I just like. But all about that - when we meet!
