ABOUT ME

I’m kids English teacher. I’ve been working in education for more than 8 years now and I love my job!! In my free time I like to go for a coffee with friends, go to the gym, learn Spanish.

I think I am pretty happy person (ok, working hard to be one) and I like to share my happyness and good mood with other people. I am excited about life and trying to enjoy any experiences life offers!

I like walking, having long conversations, drinking wine or coffee, reading, dancing (not good at it at all, but love it anyway). And traveling of course.

Interested in philosophy, politics, history, space, literature, yoga, meditation, food and everything else)

PHILOSOPHY

For all the great things in our lives we have to pay with extra sleeps.

We are made of star-stuff. C. Sagan.

Whether or not we dance, we're going to look like idiots, so better to dance!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's also gives you chance to know your own culture/city/country better!
