Hello, people from all over the world. My name is SJ and I study education at university. I'm easygoing, open-minded, understanding and rather optimistic. Even though I might be a little bit shy at first, you will find me friendly just a few hours later.
I love to learn new things, such as different cultures and languages. I also like exotic foods, art works, nature and peace. I truly believe that everyone is an amazing individual regardless of one's religion, background, ethnicity, education or political views she/he has, and therefore, it's good to get to know a person from the other side of the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I live with my grandparents, parents and sisters now, and it's hard to host travellers in such a large family unfortunately. Once I become independent, I would be happy to invite you.

The main purpose that I joined this site is to experience the real and genuine atmosphere of each country that I'm planning to visit. Except for some special cases, I've been accustomed to guided package tours so far, which gave me little opportunity to make local friends and to explore non-touristic sites. With CS and your kindness, I want to find the unaffected charm of diverse places in the world.

Interests

I'm interested in so many things. It ranges from litterature, history, and anthropology to astronomy and international politics. If you are inclined to share your experience and knowledge, I would be glad to be there for you.
