About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore the world and it's beauty and to share my interests with anyone who is willing to accept them :)

ABOUT ME

I am a bubbly and energetic personality. Very curious and interested in learning new aspects of life and creating opportunities to make the most of my time here on earth. I warm up to people quickly and I am very easy to get along with.

I tend to attract people with a sense of humor because I love to laugh, people with a need for adventure because I have been searching for it myself, people who are artistic in any area because I am an artist myself, people who are experienced in different areas especially travel because I love to soak up information and listen to their stories, people who are spiritual and believe there is more to this planet then just us because I believe that we are not the only ones here. My motto is: 'Try and learn something new everyday' because I believe that's how I grow as a person.

I have a lot of love for nature whether it is just a flower growing in the garden or a world wide phenomenon. I also have a huge respect for animals, especially fascinated with the the cat kingdom.

I enjoy taking photographs, even though I am not very good at it but I try my best. Experience different cuisine is a must, wherever i travel!

I also at times make jewelry out of hemp, paint, compose or whoever the mood of the day takes me! I also have a huge love for language and can somewhat understand most Slavic languages. I am also constantly learning new ones so please, don't be shy to teach me :D

I don't eat junk food although deserts at times are such a temptation! Im vegan and mainly a raw food eater as well!

I graduated from a Bachelor of Music and have been studying music all my life. I eventually want to complete my Masters and PHD but for now my only dream is to explore the world and share myself with it.

PHILOSOPHY

“I should like to spend the whole of my life in traveling abroad, if I could anywhere borrow another life to spend afterwards at home.”

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am providing my house to anyone who wants to stay while I am at home. I am also more then happy to meet up for a drink, show people around for the day and also take you some places! All you have to do is ask nicely :D

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I joined firstly because I want to explore the world and see what it has to offer and secondly because I want to meet new and interesting people from around the world and see what they have to share :)

A few years down the track and many incredible experience have taught me how amazing this network is and how fortunate I have been to meet and keep good hearted and close friends. New people always ask me, how would you describe couch surfing, and i always say: 'Its like Facebook for travelers!' I really couldn't think of a simpler and better way to explain it :D
