Hey. Que onda. My name's Ria, I left my home country in 2015 and since had a lot of low budget adventures, including living in a cave for some months and hitchhiking over 100,000km across Europe to Georgia, and in Mexico and Colombia. After this long nomad existance, here I am now studying my phd in forest ecology in Prague, which includes several months of the year travelling to remote regions to study old-growth forests. I try to get out of the city as much as possible to keep life full of new experiences. Basically anything with the body, and anything outside. I am absolutely in love with climbing mountains.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

as cliche as it is, to meet with a local is an enriching experience; it's proper cultural immersion that simply cannot be obtained from staying in a hostel. I am not travelling to see tourist shit with other travellers, i'm travelling to learn about different cultures. I have made friends for life through couchsurfing. The random encounters of hosting is pretty great, so wilkommen!

Интересы

exploring our beautiful planet of course.. nature, cycling, yoga, cooking, listening to music, hiking, reading, drinking beer, swimming, meditating, stroking cats, watching sunsets, wondering streets, pondering ...but I am open-minded and hope to learn many new skills in my life.

I hope I can teach you something about ecology!
