ABOUT ME

Hi, I am Raluca. I am from Romania originally, but I am currently living in Cleveland, Ohio, working on a blog about young changemakers and entrepreneurs, called Taking on the Giant. I studied in the U.S. at Vassar College and, then I did my masters at the University of Oxford, with a degree in Refugees and Forced Migration. I am very active on Twitter, where you can follow me at: @Raluca_Besliu

I am a journalist and have published in multiple magazines and journals. Here are some of my articles in case you are interested:

I like to travel and present my country to other people and to discover new places and carry meaningful conversations with people.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed in Nashville and Louisville with one of my friends from China in the summer of 2013. It was our first time couchsurfing. It was great. Since then, I continued couchsurfing in places like Chicago, Boston and Indianapolis, meeting some really incredible people along the way.
