Hi, fellow couchsurfers!

As you can see my name is Pepa and I've grown up in one beautiful town on the Bulgarian seaside called Pomorie. Since high school, I've been living in Sofia, the capital city.

Now I am a Psychology student, but before that, I've studied Slavic Philology at Sofia University, where I fell in love with the Czech language and Slavic literature.
Culture, languages, and cooking are my biggest passions. For me, they are intrinsically linked, but that's a long topic that we can discuss once we meet up.

There is no need to say that I love traveling and meeting different people from different cultures. I describe myself as a very open and friendly person and I love when people are feeling easy in my company.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

As I said above - I love learning. I am currently learning Spanish, after already mastering Czech and English. After Spanish, I am planning to study several more languages or in other words, I am planning to never stop learning, not only languages, but everything - about our and other planets, about the people from different cultures, or just about the different people.
I want to taste as many foods and ingredients as I can and to hear as many as possible life stories.
That's why I am here - to take a piece from you and to give you a piece from me in return. And also to get inspired to learn new languages and practice these, that I already speak.
