Hey there! I come from Malta a teeny weeny island in the Mediterranean. I adore adventure and I'm obsessed with travel. If my life was a perfume it would smell like the sea. So I had decided to combine these two amazing things and worked in tourism relating to cruise ships and yachts. During this time at sea I have opened my eyes on the global heritage value, so I am currently doing my masters on this.
Interested in Books & Literature
Interested in Cycling
Fluent in German
Learning Arabic (Egypt)
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Although I worked in the high end luxury tourism sector, my favourite style of travelling is backpacking where I meet amazing people along the way. I find Couchsurfing as the perfect medium for such purpose. I love it!
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: anything really! But I have to admit that I am an old soul and my favourite is jazz bossa nova. Movies: I love experimental movies such as The Tree of Life. My favourite producer is Lars von Trier. Books: Dystopian Novels
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I have worked on a cruise ship and on an amazing historical tall sailing ship. I have also backpacked solo across Ukraine. It pains my heart to see the country at war!
Teach, Learn, Share
Life is beautiful with its up and downs. We have all been there, I'd love to share my experiences with beautiful souls. I can teach salsa, maltese and all about boats!
What I Can Share With Hosts
I love being an ambassador of Malta, my country. I can teach you all about it :) Ever wondered about sailing the seven seas? I can tell you everything I know.
My Interests
Motorcycles, salsa, bachata, kizomba, reading, nautical history, boat design, building stuff, sailing, meditation, sending postcards, green engineering.
