My name is Vanja and I just finished my education in a circus school in Sweden. I'm on my first big trip away, travelling the other side of the world by myself. It can be challenging and a bit scary sometimes, but that's important. I want to grow as much as possible and spread my wings and fly. And experience everything I can. I love meeting new people and learning new things. And to go on adventures!

I just spent three amazing months in Australia doing volunteer work and wwoofing. Now I just arrived in Auckland, New Zealand and am very excited to explore this beautiful country.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have heard great things about Couchsurfing and want to try it too. Travelling by yourself can be lonely sometimes and I believe this is a good way to meet lovely people. I have really enjoyed staying with all kinds of people on my travels so far.

Interests

I love circus! Acro, yoga, climbing and movement in general. Dancing is a passion. I love being in nature and taking walks in the forrest. Climbing trees and looking at the stars. Earth is our loving mother that I care about deeply. I love all animals, and luckily most of the time they seem to like me too. I love going on adventures and doing things most people are afraid of. I challenge myself a lot and like to push my own boundaries. I also crochet and solve big puzzles and Rubik's cubes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumping out of an airplane! Falling through the skies and dancing in the clouds. I started skydiving last year and I'm in love with it. I have done 25 jumps so far.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to solve a Rubik's cube, but you have to be patient!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Smiles and laughter! I'm a quiet person by nature and a bit shy, but very friendly and cute. I love hearing people's stories and am a very good listener. I'm quite small but have a big heart. Happiness is best when shared with others. I'm always happy to help in any way I can.
