I'm Dan, a filmmaker from Romania, living in Tenerife, Spain. I currently work in cinematography and video production. I’m passionate about visual storytelling, film, languages (learned Spanish on Duolingo, in 1 year), books, and photography, and I’m always excited to connect with people who share an appreciation for creativity and culture. Beyond my work, I love staying active, whether it’s fitness, cycling, or a casual game of table tennis. Traveling is a big part of my journey, and I want to explore as many countries as possible to experience different perspectives and stories firsthand. My Philosophy I believe in taking action and pushing past limiting beliefs. My goal is to inspire others to do the same, whether through my work, conversations, or simply sharing experiences. I am up for great discussions, new adventures, and exchanging ideas!

我为什么使用Couchsurfing
Traveling is one of my greatest passions, and I believe the best way to truly understand a place is by connecting with the people who call it home. Couchsurfing offers a unique opportunity to share experiences, learn from locals, and make meaningful connections wherever I go. I also try to offer fellow travelers, depending on my time and schedule.
音乐、电影与书籍
I literally listen to any kind of music, depending on my mood at that moment. For example, today I may listen House, EDM, music and tomorrow some reggaeton or folklore. Recently, I am exploring the latino music genres. Although it's very hard to pick just one favourite movie, I will list a few I liked: - As I Was Moving Ahead, Occasionally I Saw Brief Glimpses of Beauty (2000) - The Banshees of Inisherin (2022) - Vortex (2021) - 20 Days in Mariupol (2023) - Chungking Express (1994) - A Ghost Story (2017) - Paris, Texas (1984) After a period in my life when I was more into personal development, psychology and business books, I started to enjoy again the fiction novels, and lately I like to read in Spanish to improve my skills (ex: Marina, by Carlos Ruiz Zafon).
