Hi, I'm Vihra from Bulgaria!

I'm new on CS, but I've used it a few times when I have traveled with my friends in Italy, so I saw it's awesome.
I travel a lot and i hope to meet some of you.
I just started a trip around Europe and my goal is to reach Norway and then Scotland. I'm a big fan of the mountains and I try to spend as much time as possible somewhere in the nature- hiking, climbing or skiing, so when I travel my aim is to explore some wild places and Highlands. But also I'm very curious, so I enjoy spending time in different cities and getting to know the locals, because they are a very important part of the experience in a new destination.
My other passion is painting, so I am starting to study applied arts in my hometown.
When I travel I try to meet as much more artists and interesting people as possible, because they inspire me and I want to learn more about so many many things in life. I just LOVE learning abroad!!
Thanks to my journeys I've become more open-minded and empathetic.
Most of the time I'm full of energy and always ready for some adventures :D

It's hard for me to determine exactly what music I listen to. I enjoy a wide variety of genres - from punk to jazz and trip hop, alternative rock, hip hop, rave....

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've lived almost only on nuts and melted snow for ten days in the mountain and I manage somehow to follow my dreams.At night I rowed in a canoe in a sea full of plankton under falling stars.
 

Teach, Learn, Share

Almost every skill is useful, so I am ready to share and learn. Everything new is interesting and curious for me. I can show you the basics of oil painting and sketching, some bulgarian meals or tell you some good bulgarian stories :)
