About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be happy! :) and make people around me happy too :P

ABOUT ME

I would say I am a very outgoing person. Talkative as well as a good listener (that's what I've been told). I am quite sociable, a very curious person and like meeting new people. I believe you can learn something from Everyone! I wouldn't want to miss the opportunity with anyone. Especially with people that are from other countries ans cultures.

I am a psychology graduate. Interested in people and their brains (weird I know). Currently figuring out what I want to do with my life. No judging! Interesting in getting to know what you do and makes you happy :) maybe it helps me to find out a new passion!

PHILOSOPHY

Live a life worth remembering! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I discovered Couchsurfing a few years ago and used to go to some of the meetings in London.

In Summer 2014 I decided to travel around Europe for a couple of months. I ended up in more than 20 cities in 5 different countries, where I had amazing hosts and incredible experiences I will always cherish!

It's been a long time since then, and now it is my time to host! :)

Interests

I enjoy travelling! (what a surprised!) Tried to do it as often as my studies and work has allowed me to.
Living in London has given me the opportunity to have friends from many places and "travel" while listening to their stories :)

I like being active! I wouldn't say I'm great at sports...but I try my best. Used to play volleyball. Recently I've been doing Bouldering and I love it!

Have a great time when spending time cooking and eating with friends (FOOD IS LOVE) and watching a good movie together.

I'd like to explore more my artistic side now...trying to learn how to play piano and improve my drawing skills.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music. I like listening to new music and always enjoy a classic song. Gives me a feeling like anything else. I like everything from Classical and Jazz to Reggae and Indie.
Interested in getting to know new music.

TV Shows: Dexter, Breaking Bad, Criminal Minds, GoT, Modern Family, Sherlock, House of Cards, Hannibal, Black Mirror (Im a tv show addicted! can u tell?)

I love movies that makes me change my perspective of life: Life is beautiful, Untouchable, A beautiful mind, Freedom Writers, Samsara.
Love cartoon movies (who doesn't love Finding Nemo & Madagascar?) There will always be a little girl in me :)

Books: 11 minutes, After the crash, The Alchemist, the Hunger Games, Harry Potter, Child 44. Love a good thriller! Any book recommendation will be very much appreciate it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-I like extreme sensations...I'll never forget the feeling I had when I did paragliding and Bungee Jumping (my dream is to do skydiving tho!)

-Travelling on my own around Europe for a couple of months

-Lived in an ashram in India for a few weeks learning Traditional Tantra Yoga

-Met the love of my life in India, chased him to Australia and brought him to London to be with me <3

Teach, Learn, Share

I think languages are a great asset...would love to teach Spanish to anyone who is interested :)

I am interested in pretty much anything that is new so I am sure I could always learn something from you ! Although I'd really like to learn how to play piano :)

Have a newly found interest in UX design so if you know about it or work in the field, I'd like to hear about it :)

Also, I am trying to get into healthy eating habits. So if you can share any interesting, new or typical recipe from your country with us it would be great!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Believe it or not, after 8 years in London I keep finding new interesting places. If we have the time will show you around, take you to cool not so touristy places and give you tips! Also we are really into cooking lately... So if you are brave enough you can try whatever we make :)
