One small sparkle getting lost in this big Universe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on my way of finding myself and I hope I get to finds others along the way. We are all social beings and I think we should be measuring happiness with the number of beautiful and memorable human connections we have. I think I can find on couchsurfing people as quirky as me.

Interests

I love travelling and getting to meet new people, because we all have such different experiences that I feel every travel is like a 1001 arabian nights rendition, with real people with real life stories.

I am an activist and get involved in protecting the virgin forests in Romania, gender equality and tolerance of all people, fighting against corruption, and being mindful about the environment. I am currently founding an association on circular economy and collaborative consumption.

I really do think that boardgames are the type of social glue that allow us to develop and learn in the same time. I enjoy playing 7Wonders, Catan, Splendor, Dixit, Carcassonne.

I enjoy the green nature and the mountains from Romania, I feel at home and at ease when I can breathe fresh air, feeling totally free without borders nor boundaries.

I have been a bookworm and this is not something likely to change in the near future.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy indie music and live performances. I love to discover new music from other people. Music moves me, I love to dance so any tune can make me move and get off the chair.

I love books, I would spend my time just reading and reading. I am currently finding my words to write my own book, creating a new universe, mainly fantasy.

I really cannot pick a favourite book, but I am a Harry Potter and Game of Thrones fan, read all the books in one sitting. Then I will have David Lodge, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the Neverending story, The Perfume, Karl May, Haruki Murakami, The Hunger Games, etc.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am generally interested in everything which can enrich our existence and help us become our best version of ourselves.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I only have myself and the stories that I carry with me. My unique life experience and what nuggets of wisdom I have collected so far in life. I have been working in training and coaching so if anything I know can serve, I would be more than happy to share.
