Membro desde 2008
Citizen of the world, in love with travelling, amazed by the way people live all around the world, fascinated by foreign cultures and languages, and concerned about the environment. I am lucky enough to have a job that I'm passionate about and that allows me to travel a lot and connect with locals. I'm easy going, dynamic and positive, love to meet new people, explore new places, keen to try new activities. I recently moved to NY after having spent the last three years in Bangladesh, and would love to meet new people for a drink or to go explore!
