I'm an adventurer and world-traveler! I'm from Bulgaria, but I graduated from Boston University, USA, and then lived across the UK while working for Diageo (the owner of Johnnie Walker, Guinness, Smirnoff, etc). Three years ago, I moved back home to Bulgaria, and now I work for the family wine business - we have vineyards and a winery, which i'd love to show you when you decide to visit! I deal with marketing, sales, and export of our premium wines, and with my favorite wine tourism (we receive visitors from all over the world every day)!

I travel to exotic destinations as often as I can, and love exploring cultures through the eyes of the locals.
I love scuba diving, so my trips are always connected to water, islands and beaches. I also love nature, hiking, greenery, and animals!

Some of my top travel experiences so far:
- Homestay with the Hmong people in the rice fields of Sapa, Vietnam
-Homestay on Amantani Island, Lake Titicaca, Peru
- Trekking the Salkantay Trail for 5 days to reach Macchu Picchu, Peru
- Diving with hammerheads in the Galapagos Islands
- Backpacking through Cuba with my best friend
- Road-tripping California and visiting the Grand Canyon, diving in Sand Diego and Catalina Island
- Doing Yoga and getting massages every day in Bali
-Hosting US and Canadian friends for trips all over Bulgaria and Greece.

I'm currently planning a trip with my boyfriend Boyan through Hawaii and would like to stay with someone who can show us the real Oahu culture and can point us to the best hiking and beach spots! Boyan has his own business with cars - you can ask him more about it!
I've lived in Boston, Madrid, Liverpool, Belfast, London, and now - back in Sofia! We have both traveled extensively through Europe, USA, and have visited some countries in South and Central America and Asia. It will be our fist time in Hawaii, and we are going to a wedding in Oahu!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We'd love to learn more about the places we visit and meet locals through couchsurfing. We'd love to stay in the off-the-beaten path locations and explore the real Oahu! Plus, we like to hike and go to the beach with our newly-found friends!
