Introvert, Book-Lover, Cat-Lady and Science Nerd...

I usually spend all my time on geology, it's what I wanted to do since I was 8 years old, I am neither the smartest nor the most industrious student but my enthusiasm brought me to a place where I get actually paid for what I love and that's awesome.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it's easier to learn and change your mind when you get a view from another person's perspective.

Interests

My family always thought I'd become a writer or an artist, mostly because I spend a fair share of my early years with my nose in a book or a pencil in hand. Well... I like art but I like the planet more.

As I recently learned (or better - had to admit): You can't be an environmentalist while consuming animals products. This and a decade-long involvement in animal welfare slowly but surely turned me into an almost vegan.

I have a strong opinion on plastic straws and generally annoy my roommate with my effort to reduce waste in our household.

The rest of the time you'll find me outdoors...

Music, Movies, and Books

When it comes to art I like the classics and everything that has potential to become one. It has to be authentic and touching in any way...

All-time favourite painter is Botticelli because Mars and Venus made me cry when I first saw the original at London National Gallery.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I kept my three best friends for more than 12 years and even better - recently moved in with one of them.

Teach, Learn, Share

Weirdly, I know a lot about octopuses. Interested?
