I'm Alexandra, originally from Romania. I left my country once I finished my studies and I lived in England, France and Japan, from where I decided to quit my job to fulfill my biggest passion in life, travelling. My dream is to visit every single country in depth (meaning not just a few days in every country, but taking the time to properly immerse into the culture and make friends around the world). I love to learn from locals and take the time to understand each culture, listen to stories and make unforgettable memories everywhere I go. Instagram: iuliaalexandraciobanu P.S. 1. Couchsurfing is NOT Tinder! 2. I resonate with people that understand common sense, possess emotional intelligence and respect boundaries.

Music, Movies, and Books
One book that changed my life: my passport! Some quotes that I love: "The goal is to die with memories, not dreams." "The only thing more powerful than hate is love." "Once is a mistake. Twice is a choice." "If it cost your peace, it's too expensive." Alexander the Great’s quote, “When we give someone our time, we actually give a portion of our life that we will never take back.” "Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder." "Too much attention makes a donkey thinks he's a lion." "In the right eyes you are irreplaceable." "You found the right person to learn the lessons you had to learn." "Travel alone. The world will introduce you to the people meant for you." My favourite movies are Eat Pray Love and Mamma Mia! The '80s/'90s vibes are my favorite but trance music feeds my soul https://youtu.be/cxn3LZZHipQ?si=LEMbYKhXcbEG_-MI
