Description

I'm a young scientist from Sri Lanka/ France, who is passionate about stars and what is beyond. My work is about asteroids and I strive to understand them better to know more about our own origins and how to save the Earth in case one were to come close and give Earth a big hug :)

Traveling and its imminent life-changing possibilities also fall into my interests. It took me quite a while to discover my passion for traveling, but finally I'm happy I'm now on move. I enjoy meeting different people who are open-minded and are inspired about traveling. Going out, tasting a local drink, doing a hike and enjoying the views are somethings that I don't wanna miss often. Languages are also a part of my life, and I like the beauty of the languages which permits us to experience the cultures of different countries and territories. I can speak six languages at different levels of fluencies and this year I set a goal to learn Swedish, which has been a language that has fascinated me for years due to its unique melody. After studying Swedish on my own for several months, now I'm planning to go to Sweden this summer to spend several weeks getting an immersion. That's where workaway comes in! I'm also up for language exchange and I could teach you French or Sinhala in exchange of Swedish.

I've been able to travel and see a bit of the world, and enjoy its charms in my backpacking trips in Brazil, Europe and some parts of Asia. I've lived in Sri Lanka, Vietnam, France and currently I live in the vibrant Italian capital of Rome.
