I see myself as an open-minded, sociable and active person. I enjoy meeting new people, new cultures, exchanging ideas and experiences.

The world is gorgeous and my dream is to see and taste the most of it.

I am out-going, bubbly and direct. I do like talking, but on the other hand I really do know when someone needs space just for themselves. I like cheeky sense of humour - even if it's a bit politically incorrect ;) I think people feel comfortable around me - or at least I like to think that :)

I am not a workaholic - life is too precious to spend it on work only.
I've worked for non-for-profit organizations for quite a while now, then got back to business world for a bit and now back to a social enterprise sector in Scotland. I do love my job.

In my free time I practice yoga - I think I am addicted to it! Or in general - I just can't live without physical activities. I love being outdoor, cycling, hiking...etc..

HOSTING ON CS

HOSTING REQUEST TIPS

I prefer last minute request as I don't like to be committed too far ahead in case my plans change. One to three days before usually works best for me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always enjoyed meeting people from different countries and cultures. Exchanging experiences, ideas about the world and also sharing stories about our own cultures/menthality has always been very enriching and inspiring for me.
All my couch surfing experiences have been extremely positive so far so I want to continue using the service.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was hosted by wonderful, friendly people in Switzerland, Thailand. Recently I visited Portugal and I was hosted by lovely Henriqueta from Lisbon - we became friends and we are still in touch. It was a great experience.
