I love singing. I completed my Master's degree in classical singing аt the Musical academy in Sofia, Bulgaria in 2016. I used to be a psychologist, and also had my own business in health and nutrition, and then a fashion boutique. I like to travel, and meet nice people. I love beautiful things and art, I love colour, I used to make crystal bead jewellery, and that is how my boutique got started. I have also sung Bulgarian Folk music. I am young at heart, and get on well with younger people, probably because I like adventure.
Recently someone said about me that I am a free , positive and gentle spirit. Right now I am back in Bulgaria after a 5 year absence. I love the summer in Bulgaria. But my second country is Australia. So I go back there and stay. But wherever I am, I love singing as a street performer. This is a recent example of me busking https://youtube.com/shorts/eZdjOJDIrIM?si=y-03YhuB55TYz8Ks .

I want to tell you that couchsurfing has been one of the best experiences of my life. I have fond feelings of all my guests and hosts who left me a reference, and it really makes my day reading the references and remembering the times we had together!!! I had visited many countries before being on Couchsurfing, but I would love to visit them again by staying at my couchsurfing friends' places one day.
I WILL ONLY HOST NON-SMOKERS. PLEASE ARRIVE BY 7.30 PM. I EXPECT THE GUEST TO BE CLEAN AND GENTLE AND RESPECTFUL OF THE SPACE. I WOULD APPRECIATE if YOU CONTRIBUTE WITH FOOD and I can cook a meal for us.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a traveler at heart, I like having adventures, connecting with people, finding out about their culture, and experiences in life. I know what it is like to be going to a new place, and now through this website I can provide a home for people who are coming to visit the country i am living in, and I can have a home somewhere far away, before even leaving my place. I am really loving being a host, I like making people happy and to feel at home, and when I travel, I like to think that I have contributed something to their world. I like the idea of being "at home" in another city, with locals, rather than alone in a hotel. When I travel, and when I host, I would like to cook for you, and talk, if you have time, but I am also very independent and like my space.
In Sofia I have a spare room, and I love hosting. I can show you central Sofia and we could even go on a trip together to other parts of Bulgaria.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have done a lot of amazing things! I gave a paper at a psychological conference while I was still a student. About 20 years ago, after my car in Bulgaria was stolen, I went to Germany by bus, bought an old bomb, and drove it back to Bulgaria.
I enrolled at university five years ago, studying with 19 and 20 year olds.
I busked, singing opera, in the queue in front of St Sophia in Istanbul one morning, while waiting for the church/museum to open for the day.
