About Me

After one year abroad, meeting many many different people, different cultures and most important than that being connected without limits and borders, I realized that it's always time to push back the boundaries, leave the comfort zone and start to do things which are really meaningfull in life.
I believe that I am more and more able to get to know every single piece of this magic world.
I can discribe myself as positive, funny, honest and open-minded person who always tries to simplify life with a sincere smile and, mainly, to help as possible as I can, not only people around me, but also people who really need.
I'm passionate about nature, different cultures and life.
After a year doing an European Voluntary Service in Romania, in which I was working with children from different ethnicities in hospitals and schools in order to promote integration and values I'm back in my own country not only to plan my future but also to meet international people, new travel souls.

PHILOSOPHY

"Peace is not something you wish for, It's something you make, something you do , something you are, and something you give away” - John Lennon

"Put your heart, mind, and soul into even your smallest acts. This is the secret of success."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Being a dynamic young girl, I truly believe that traveling is the best challenge for me to get to know new people and new cultures that allow me to make my own experience through sharing this multicultural world.
So, for me couchsurfing is the best opportunity, not only to visit different cities, but more important that this, to have the privilege to talk and share amazing experiences with the locals.
