ABOUT ME
I like meeting new people and discovering their ways of life,seeing new places, lerning new things - I really love exploring habbits and customs of people from various cultures. I got inspired by Greek "siga siga" - (slow down, don't hurry) - a magic phrase which can be applied almost to everything: take you time, enjoy being with your friends, don't get stressed too much. Sometimes it still takes me some effort but I learned that it is relly worth stopping and enjoying your time.
After Greece I started working in an international NGO for youth and environment. Like many other youth NGOs it was a little messy, with deadlines coming always out of sudden, but otherwise it was a great time of being with friends (cooking and sharíng meals with your colleagues), travelling and meeting new people thanks to many youth events abroad.
Las year I spent awesome (new world I've learned using here!!!) 8 month in Vancouver and made a nice trip to Montreal and NY.
Right now we (my boyfriend and I) are almost on the way to Brasil!!!
