About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Getting ready to launch my media project which I have been dreaming of for years! Coming to Germany in October 2021 for my Master program.

ABOUT ME

A constant learner. A very empathetic and sensitive person which I believe helps other people to trust me and open up. I love it 😍. I can’t stand superficial life. If I ever feel that I am down this road, I take a moment until I find which direction my heart feels like going. I love uncomfortable conversations and sincerity, this is what makes me feel alive.

People say my laugh is too loud, I say that it’s coming from my heart and I am not afraid to show it. As Brené Brown, a shame and vulnerability researcher, puts it - “always choose courage over comfort”.

I have got a chance to live in Greece, Turkey and France for some years, and that was a very enriching experience. I am attentive to global social issues and trying to figure out the ways to alleviate them. This is what my media project about. Are you thinking about that, too? I would be happy to discuss it together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because borders are bullshit. Traveling over the world and staying with local people is about sharing humanity. After all, we are all in this together.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love classical and easy rock, jazz and blues, classical and instrumental music. Even though I love working on documentaries and fiction films, in my free time I would prefer books to films. I am into sociology, psychology, philosophy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have worked in local prisons in France with teenagers. I loved this unique experience and would be glad to do it again (in other countries).
I have climbed Adam’s peak in Sri Lanka.
I have made a documentary about refugee children in Greece.

Teach, Learn, Share

I will share with you my soul passion, a lot of thoughts on this world and stories from my trips into different cultures.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My documentaries (it's just a few of them). And interesting, meaningful time.
