I decided to move to UK in order to improve my English and experience life abroad. Being more independent and lonenly/alone tought me several things. I can say that it made me a different person. Hopefully, a better version of myself.

I've always wanted to work in the media industry and I am still pushing myself to achieve that goal.

Some things you might want to know before asking for an accomodation:

- My house is in Zone 2, East London, close to Devons Road station on DLR line. It's about 10 mins from Stratford.
- I can host just one person at the time.
- I usually prefer hosting people with references, a nice full profile or/and a verified account.
- I like clean and tidy people.
- You can stay in the living room on my couch or I can give you a mattress.
- After a lot of experience as Host and Guest I decided to be more specific about what means couchsurfing. It seems like people misunderstand that. I found a post how to be a better host and guest and I agree with this guy.
So, before coming to my house and thinking you'll be here to exploit my generosity, you should read it too:

I hope you'll enjoy this fantastic community which helps travellers to connect to each other.

Have a good life.
