Hi people 🙋🏻‍♀️ I'm Maria, a 27 years old teacher and learner from Greece. Started traveling about a year ago and till then I'm looking how to explore new destinations! I recently joined Couchsurfing and I cannot wait to have my firsts experiences in this community 🙏🏼

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think couchsurfing is the most interesting and powerful way of traveling cause it takes you out of your comfort zone, you become a member of a community based in solidarity plus it's the most authentic way to experience local culture out of the typical tourist way

Interests

Always trying my best to travel more, live closer to nature, read more, hear more music, cook healthy, express my self through physical activities and involve myself through interaction with other amazing people out there!

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy hearing new music every day to unlock my way of thinking, lately I enjoy hearing to music without lyrics when I spent some peaceful time alone from juzz, afrobeat, Latin American to electronic , ambient and post punk music
My favourite topic in books is psychology, spiritual growth, and self improvement so couple important book for me was The Alchemist, Your Erroneous Zones and Freedom from the known
Cinema is my favourite type of art, I'm a big admirer of Europian Cinematography mostly, I attend the filmography of couple filmmakers as Jodorowfsky, Kaurismaki, Almodovar, Pasolini, Kieslowski, Wes Anderson among others

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I really enjoy physical activities in nature, so I consider that climbing at waterfalls this summer was an amazing thing I achieved

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't consider my my self a "wise" person to teach anything, I'm rather a humble person, who thinks that we attend knowledge from our respected and unique paths. With that being said, rather than teaching and knowledge, I look for experience, emotion, friendship, and I'm always happy with the idea of offering someone anything from my experience and from my way of living till now

What I Can Share with Hosts

I consider myself a communicative person who enjoys learning and sharing what I already know about culture and traveling
