Hello, my name is Zoriana 👋

I’m a naturelover, always smiling and always up for adventures. When I travel I like to be like a local, my weakness is nature and not touristic places.

I'm sure there are so many places to see and so many people to get to know!
I always try to look on the bright side of life and enjoy the little things. Sometimes we forget to smile (even for no reason) and to value what we have.

I really enjoy doing sports, especially hiking, climbing, camping, ride a bike and I love being active and sometimes a little crazy (roupe jumping, skydiving, motorcycle trips, solo hitchhiking and solo hiking. I don't like alcohol. I don't smoke. And...of course I love all types of food😋

PHILOSOPHY:
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's a great place to meet new people and share cultures while traveling abroad and it gives a chance to truly see how people are living in some part of the world.

The most important thing in every trip is communication, I love to hear interesting stories and tips from travels and share my own :)
