Where are you from, and what led you to Bucharest?

I was born in Târgovişte, one of the former capitals of Wallachia, a small and quiet town nowadays. I came to Bucharest in 2006 to study Geophysics and, as most of the people who come here to study, I stayed.

How did you end up becoming a tour guide?
