About Me

I hate words "better" and "worse", I prefer "different". I consider myself cosmopolitan, I feel happy and peaceful at the airports where u can meet people from all over the world and hear the shimmering of conversations in every language u can imagine. I love hanging out with people with passions and learn from them, I like crazy ideas and those who dare to turn them into reality xD

This is my life philosophy, things I believe in, agree with and try to apply.

"On earth there is no heaven, but there are pieces of it." Jules Renard

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm in China right now and I thought it's a good place to look for someone to hang out with:) I also love travelling and meeting people from other cultures.

Interests

I love travelling like most of us here :-P I enjoy spending time with people who have something interesting to saying. I love watching movies but I can't stand couch potatoes who prefer it to the real life and interactions with others. I like parties a lot and dancing my ass of there. I'm no professional dancer but when I dance I feel free. I like history and reading historic books. I can do shopping the whole day long. I like to learn languages. I love long walks and it's almost impossible to make me complain I'm exhausted. I like cooking and chilling with friends while having a beer or wine. I love endless night conversations especially when you don't even realise it's getting brightly outside. I love drawing - it relaxes me and in the contrary to singing (which unfortunately I like too) I'm quite good at it
