Hi there! 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 myself into the culture and make friends everywhere around the world). I love to learn from locals and take the time to understand each culture, listen to different stories, make unforgettable memories everywhere I go.

P.S. I made my account in Indonesia (that's why it appears Balikpapan)!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help you improve your English, French or teach you Romanian, give you tips for travelling on a budget, share about the automotive industry or about my stories around the world!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am sociable and talkative, I get along with almost everyone, easy going, open minded - therefore I can have engaging conversations, give advice on matters I have experience with and hopefully give back and hosting once I settle down
