I am a calm, but not a shy person willing to explore this beautiful world and meet new interesting people. I am passionate about travelling, music and science, with the latter being my future career (currently doing a PhD in nanotechnology at University of Cambridge).

Interests

I have three main passions in my life: travelling, music and science. I play clarinet and some piano, especially classical and jazz/blues music. I also study nanotechnology at University of Cambridge. Outside of these two, I have a plethora of smaller, not-so-serious hobbies which include: photography, assembling models, cycling, books, hiking, sailing and many more!

Music, Movies, and Books

Funky, jazz, fusion, blues (my favourites: Keith Jarrett, Gary Burton, Benny Goodman, Stan Getz, James Carter, Dexter Gordon, Miles Davis, Snarky Puppy, Tom Waits, Melody Gardot, Stacey Kent and lots more)
I also like listening to classical music, but I prefer hearing it live (favourite composers: Poulenc, Brahms, Beethoven, Bach, Debussy, Chopin, Schubert, Saint-Saens)

Books: I mostly read books that have been advertised to me by my friends. I really enjoy the Discworld series by T. Pratchett, the Witcher series by Sapkowski, some of the classics such as Master and Margerita.

Favourtie movies? Ones made by Wes Anderson.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Organising a series of science outreach events for kids aged 6-8 was challenging, yet a very rewarding experience.

Travel-wise: I think it must be 2 weeks of hitchinking through the Balkans, meeting with great local hospitality, eating amazing food, exploring nature and beautiful cities.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach anything that I can do basically, but I love talking about science (in a very broad term). I enjoy discussing how things work, from natural phenomena to man-made machines. Also, I fancy some music talk as well.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good sense of humour, I love to listen to people's tales, with a fair bit of my own stories to share. I would guess that sharing experiences and culture works best when meeting new people.
