About Me

Currently in the Netherlands exploring the green countryside life 💚🌱

Since beginning of 2018 I decided to change my life and learn and live more.
I left my 3 part time jobs, and decided to became a volunteer at a farm/ahsram... living in a community with people from all around the world... then a lot of traveling followed... many experiences volunteering and meeting interesting people :)

I like to travel and always learn new things, kinda optimistic, dreamer, in love with life (aha most of the times), enjoying the little things!
I really like to mix with locals while I travel, it makes my trips much more memorable and pleasant, meaningful :)

Interested in personal growth... everything that can contribute to my personal journey, open to different cultures and new challenges.

I believe that life is like a mirror... What you give, you will have back... So I just follow my way keeping that in mind :)
