CURRENT MISSION

Grow and Give

ABOUT ME

I enjoy these awesome moments right before my departure to new destinations. These exceptional feelings tingle my mind and heart, and let me feel truly alive. Travel stretches my thoughts, senses, and skills, and makes me want more from life!!

I'm currently studying at a doctoral training centre at University of Cambridge blending research work with student life. In other words I keep discovering myself and the world around me. I enjoy company of creative and courageous people as that is why I really enjoy the CS idea.

In my life I seek originality and diversity. On the route I try to discover my interests and develop my talents by committing to things I am passionate about.

I am a committed learner of gratitude and generosity, through which I search for love, freedom (defined broadly as independence), and self-realisation.

PHILOSOPHY

Grow and give.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I 'surf' as often as I can - I am open to many different destinations. Thanks to CS I can explore even more! I can help others by showing around the city, offering advice and chat.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed in few places and also hosted few people in London and Cambridge. Amazing experience so far!

Interests

I am interested in adventurous travel, personal development, piano/guitar playing and composition, trying to sing, meaningful music, chess, salsa , pharmaceuticals, expert science consulting, scientific research, small scale business, consciousness, skepticism, living fully present to the moment, healthy living, freedom, perception and expression, human psychology, philosophy of science, meditation and mindfulness. I enjoy discussing the reason versus belief problems, moral dilemmas, peoples' life visions and lifestyles.
