I was raised surrounded by a deep love of nature which I try to stay true to and seek every day. Being born in Romania, immigrating to the US, working in Japan, and a bunch of other adventures around the world has helped me realize that my highest priority is gaining as many different lenses to see life through as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
