Overview
About Me
******I am not at home! My mother can host people from time to time***************
Between 2007 and 2010 I studied European Affairs in Romania at UBB Cluj.
When I finished my study I applied for EVS volunteering in Wroclaw (Poland). For nine months I organized a lot of workshops that follow subjects like: human rights, global education, developing creativity by collage. In this time I did two exhibition and one big public event about my country.
In June 2011 I returned to Romania for about two years. I worked with roma people in summers camps, after schools, libraries and other cultural spaces. I did workshops about storytelling with collage.
From 2013 till now I dedicated my self in bicycle associations, social justice projects and community gardens across Europe. For example in London I have done the courses about bikeability instructor training.
Mostly I worked in gardening projects through WWOOFing and like that I learned about plants and growing veggies in different climates. I am really keen on working in community gardens and other organic projects. From May 2013 I have been volunteering as a WWOFER in several countries in European Union: UK, Spain, Belgium, Croatia, France, Romania, Cyprus.
Since April 2017 I devoted my self in self-organized and non hierarchical groups around Europe (like Ecotopia BikeTour).
Every two years I am engaged in a long bicycle tour. For example, from April 2017 to April 2018 I cycle from Belgium to Meknes (Morocco). After Meknes I continue my last bits of journey to Tetouan, Gibraltar, Seville!
I am keep wandering around France for about 15 months - constantly come and go. My french writing is not my forte. I am speaking a rusty french due to my sessional work, volunteering and travelling.
I am a teetotal person, non-smoker, non coffee drinker.
PHILOSOPHY
Two paths diverged in a wood, and I
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
