ABOUT ME

P:my girlfriend is very social and polite person, when she finds time for that in her busy schedule. i(even though have much more spare/sleepless time) am not as cool as her but i try my best and if it doesn't work out then keep quiet and to myself, so no worries

M:i agree with that, what i can say more is that "i love to talk about Paris", probably like a lot of parisians do!

PHILOSOPHY

P:to relax and watch the world

M:to relax and live the world ;-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

mostly hosting but sometimes we travel a bit as well.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

P:i was couchsurfing on my own(without this website) from vilnius to siberia once.
visited quite a lot of cities there though, went hitchhiking 5000km with trucks and stuff.

As of cs, we hosted quite a lot of people already, and we became good friends and still keep in touch with some of them. We didn't surf much though, just few times. Lack of time..

Interests

P:i like internet and nature and aquariums. and movies sometimes.

M:For my part, i am interested in writing, like making pictures, walking in the streets, sometimes i can get interested in psychanalysis, astrology, outsider art.
