About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find a studying motivation

ABOUT ME

I´m 22 years old teacher student who enjoy spending her time day dreaming of travelling and avoiding lectures. I have been travelling quite a lot and I love to learn about cultures that are unknown for me. I spend my free time with my friends and good music. Right now I´m living my last month of my exchange year here in UK, feeling many kind of feelings of the fact I´m going home soon. Over all I´m pretty positive person who loves to live :)

PHILOSOPHY

I think I´m here to learn through out my whole life.And like the man Paulo Coelho once said: When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it. And I like to believe in that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I did participate this trough friend of mine, who told me about this and I think the idea is perfect for low budget travelling! And of course the touch to the real culture is more better this way.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I´m beginner, haven´t hosted yet or been hosted so everything is new to me!

Interests

I get excited about almost everything. I love to walk around in woods or wander around in museums. I guess is the teacher part in me which makes me to like almost everything. But in everyday routines I love good music and good food!

Music, Movies, and Books

I loved Harry Potters, Shantaram is my life time mission to finish,Torey Haydens books about special children are touching in many ways. Movies are all fine, except horror movies. Music is huge part of my life, I enjoy many different styles and can´t really name the one and the best.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In west Africa, Gambia, where all the children were smiling,happy and not complaining, even though some of them had to go to bed feeling hungry.

Scuba diving in Thailand was personal achievement for me.

Teach, Learn, Share

for this I have only one word for now. Ear plugs.
