About Me

IMPORTANT
I know how it's interesting to travel and discover new places and Portland is really unique spot and many people coming here.

1) I do not guarantee that I will approve your request.

2) America is a pretty interesting place to discover and millions of travelers are coming here every year, so my preference is to host people who are living outside the US.

Finally a few words about me:
* I consider myself an easy going and quite a friendly guy.
* I love music, cooking a bit and sometimes do sport.
* I enjoy dining out, traveling, making new connections, going to see live performances (everything from music to theater) and more.
* I also enjoy meeting up with fellow CSers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My official couch-surfing began in 2008 and it was amazing. It will be a joy to make introductions to places and people. I look forward to the exchange of ideas, skills, and cultural understanding etc. There is so much to humanity and the only way to a more healthy unified human intention is through communication and sharing; media and the governmental public information is limited by design but we don't need to rely on it, do we! I am already telling my friends about this community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well, I have surfed plenty of couches in the USA My official couch-surfing in America was my first and truly rewarding experience using this site. Also, I had a great experience in Serbia and Croatia. All of these experiences are positive and enriching.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived for 2 days on a street in New York waiting for my flight. I just didn't find any CS and hotel was too expensive for me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am excited about learning about other cultures and history as well as seeing things from new perspectives. I am ready to share / exchange in music, photography, cooking and education.
