About Me

CURRENT MISSION

learn and travel as much as possible

ABOUT ME

I am pretty cheerful, easy going, curious and totally open minded. I like being immersed in nature and new cultures. I feel homesick at home and not travelling.
I like being close to nature and taking the time to enjoy every single moment even the most insignificant.
also i'm vegan :) it helps everyone, mother earth and all the little creatures (we are part of) living on it.

PHILOSOPHY

enjoy as much as you can and never forget that what goes around comes around
sharing is caring

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i can share my happiness and my experience as a traveller
unfortunately, i can't host because i'm traveling myself and i don't have any place of my own, but someday i'll help people back ;)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My very first couchsurfing experience was in last septmber when i landed in asutralia. i had a few great couchsurfing experiences in Brisbane and Sydney! and more to come i hope :)

Interests

I love travelling, hiking, horse riding, listening to music, going out, reading, learning new things.
I admire nature and animals, i'd love to work in a wildlife rescue centre, help for conservation and do something useful and beautiful.
I also practice animal photography (https://500px.com/fionagandar)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i've held a baby tiger in my arms once which is cool but not so cool either cause they should be in the wild and certainly not going from arms to arms, feeling a bit ashamed actually....
i've held penguins/storks/flamingos in my arms while vets were doing physicals for their well being
i've seen wild horses, armadillos, alligators, platypus, racoons, arctic foxes, reindeers, snakes, loads of birds....

i've stepped on the great wall, seen northern lights and amazing sunsets/sunrises, the midnight sun and breathtaking landscapes, glaciers, untamed waters and oceans, been canoeing between the icebergs, crossed path with thousand year old trees
life is beautiful!
