About Me

I believe kindness is the beginning of all things: if one listens kindly to another's maybe outrageous ideas there will be more good to take in than bad to criticize about. I tend to search in people for that social side, the one that believes we are responsible for what happens around us and we can be that wind of change. Call me a hippie, but call me a smiling hippie :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I went with my boyfriend around Italy, Israel and Belgium and couchsurfed and met a lot of great, kind, fun loving people. The thing I liked most was that everyone tried to connect with us and we had a lot of meaningful discussions about for example the contemporary dance scene in Bruxelles or about being a woman in Tel Aviv. I try to keep my mind and eyes wide open and pay attention to the world around me and the differences and similarities of the cultures I meet. Maybe one day all of these will make for an interesting design concept :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being in Egypt during the Revolution and being able to have a normal life
Seeing the Blue Whole Coral Reef

Teach, Learn, Share

I can talk about design, Romanian design and the Romanian post-communist design world, about my life during the 4 months spent in Egypt during the Revolution, about what I felt in Israel, about women's condition in all of the above mentioned places, about poetry, dance and the theater, about traditions here in Romania and about a number of other things like astrology and various esoteric personal beliefs haha :)
I'd love to hear stories about the world, different weird customs and different approaches of the world. I still try to understand the Egyptian and Islamic culture which I find fascinating so meeting people who know this culture would be great.
All in all I'd like to meet people who are trying to change what they find unsuitable and who can talk about their ideas and views about how to make the world a better place :)
