My name is Maria and I am currently living in Bucharest. I can say about me I am curious, relaxed and open-minded. I love to meet new, different people, share a beer and hear all about the weirdest experiences they had in their lifetime. I easily get excited about a new topic and I enjoy very much when somebody introduces me to something I may never really thought about. I like to think I’m spontaneous, best plan is to have no plan. Just see how things are figuring out themselves, explore the realm of possibilities, expand the options.

I love traveling, having new experiences and getting familiar with other cultures. Especially, I am interested in traveling around the Balkans and having a personal insight about the region. I seek to go off the beaten path and know the stories behind the places.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I would like both to get you introduced into the Bucharest atmosphere and Romanian culture and to have the opportunity to meet you while I’m traveling.
