Hello! I'm Diana and I'm a lover of life! I enjoy meeting people from all over the world and have been travelling a lot during the last 2 years.

I'm originally from South Africa but moved to Portugal 3 years ago to study modern languages. I now live in Istanbul with my boyfriend.

I'm a language enthusiast and currently study German, Spanish and Portuguese. I'm also an English teacher so would be happy to help anyone needing to practice :)

Some of my hobbies include yoga, reading,hiking, art and trying new foods ( although for the last 9 months I've adopted a plant based diet). I'm also into alternative living and try to be a conscious consumer. This is just a small part of me, I hope we can meet and exchange! See you soon :)

Best regards,
Diana

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy movies but avoid tv as I'd rather be learning new things.

I love reading and my favourite author is Paolo Coelho. He has a beautiful insight to the world and people and shares great philosophies about life with his readers through metaphors.

I like most types of music. I'm very open minded when it comes to it. It honestly depends on what mood I'm in :)

Learning Portuguese, Spanish and German. I can teach English and yoga :)

Good conversations, cooking and an insight to Cape Town and South Africa :)
