About Me

CURRENT MISSION

make the world a better place

ABOUT ME

I'm a laid-back, easy going person. I am mostly good humoured, with a slight taste of sarcasm ;) You see me smiling a lot. If not, possibly I was running out of coffee or drinks.

PHILOSOPHY

The world is much nicer with a smile on your face.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just officially joined the CS community. My flatmates are always hosting a couple of CSers and we were showing them the city, taking them with us to some events and helped them to get around.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first contact with CS was through a friend who took me with her to some CS house concert. It was really nice to meet so many nice, open people, so i did not hesitate to join her for some other CS events. Now, after moving a couple of month ago to Washington D.C., I'm living in a house which warmly welcomes CSers. (The glowhouse is an awesome place!) It's such a lovely spirit. Traveling without being on the road ;)
So, I FINALLY decided to join the CS community.

Interests

Meet new interesting people (and old friends too ;)), get to know other cultures, travel, and science (yes... sometimes i tend to be a bit nerdy ;) ).
