About Me

Cheerful and easygoing person, definitely talkative, helpful, open-minded.
I'm always very caring about people and their homes when hosted.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Love meeting people from all over the world, discovering their stories, knowing more about countries than news and TV shows persuade us in. Inspired of an idea of spontaneous meetings based on trust and common interests as it is on couchsurfung. Want to see and show more hidden local spots :)

Besides, WWOOF experienced showed me a lot how much people enrich each other when they share space, work and meals.

Interests

Love travelling and talking about unique experiences or when people discover as locals. Love my job, so will be glad to discuss corporate education and e-learnings creation, design.
Enjoying talking politics even thought I wouldn't call myself an expert, I love exchange opinions and knowing your truth. Danced for 7 years, finished a while ago, but still looove hitting the dance floor!

Volunteered in AIESEC (International Students' Organization) for 3 years, went to Morocco as a volunteer for kids' summer camp. WWOOF-ed in France 2016
