About Me

I left my home country when I was 12 and spent four years in Malta studying in a boarding school. At 16 I moved to the Czech Republic, finished high school here, earned a diploma in graphic design, and later started a bachelor’s in marketing and advertising.

I’m an open-minded, creative, and kind person. I paint with oils on canvas, give new life to clothes by cutting and painting on them, and I’ve somehow managed to keep several plants alive—miracles do happen. My music taste jumps all over the place, so there’s always something playing in the background.

On the more serious side, I work for an international assistance company in Prague, arranging medical care for people who get sick or injured while traveling abroad. So yes, I’m the person who helps when someone on holiday decides to “just try” the local street food.

I love meeting new people, hearing their stories, and sharing good conversations over food, art, or music.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing because, honestly, making new friends in your late twenties is way harder than anyone warned me about. I often travel alone, and I’ve realized how much I enjoy meeting locals who feel the same way — people who are open, curious, and looking for new connections

I’d love to meet others who are in a similar chapter of life: building new friendships, exploring new places, and sharing experiences that actually mean something. And right now, I’m also hoping to find someone fun to celebrate New Year’s Eve with — good company, good vibes, nothing complicated.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 16, I packed my life into a suitcase and moved to the Czech Republic completely on my own. No family, no safety net — just a mix of fear, excitement, and a very questionable teenage confidence. Looking back, it was one of the bravest decisions I’ve ever made.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m a pretty good cook, so I can definitely whip up something tasty. I can also teach you some Russian — the useful phrases and the dramatic ones. And I’m always up for cozy evenings with wine, good food, and even better conversation.
