About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To keep up both with hard work and having an epic youth

ABOUT ME

My hands and eyes make me an artist but my mind and spirit belong to science. It makes me sensitive and vivid, but also a logical observer that keeps analysing the surrounding. And I love being like this. It makes me learn continously.

PHILOSOPHY

Learn to find what really matters and go for it. Don't waste energy, time and emotions on things that are unpleasant and unimportant. Master what you find joyful. Keep things simple.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've surfed for quite a long time, did some hosting, recently I made my couch available for CS surfers.
I can seldom host but since I surf I also want to give the karma back and even a little is better than nothing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I did some surfing and hosting (CS users&friends) already. Luckily enough, I had only good experiences and a lot of fun with hosts and surfers.

Interests

I'm an art conservation student, my concerns are all aspects of coexistance of humans and art. I'm also much into social-psychological matters of a human mind. As I'm an owner of quite a logical thinking machine, I love to listen and learn from all kinds of scientists that try to analyse, describe and explain the reality we live in (chemistry, maths, physics, astronomy... and so on). I believe we can talk pretty much about everything, as long as we share an open mind and a common, warm attitude to other people.

Music, Movies, and Books

Whole spectrum of "alternative" music of many genres, from instrumental folk/ethno, various types of melodic electronic to psytrance. It keeps developing every week and month so it's impossible to make a solid statement about it.
I'm not much into movies myself, though sometimes I watch them with a company. And I wish I had time to read more than I do now.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most intense experiences was standing on the edge of the rocky cliffs at the very end of the Europe in Cape Saint Vincent, Sagres, Portugal. There was tremendous wind, almost blowing us off the rocks, hundred metres of precipice at our feet, 15-metre waves hitting and splashing on the stone walls, lead-grey, heavy skies above us, endless waters everywhere in the range of our sight, except for a tiny piece of ground like a bridge to civilisation behind our backs. This is how a human feels only a small, actually unimportant piece of dust :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to learn properly how to play rythmical instruments, but not necessarily drums. DYI folk instruments are very appealing. I'm just starting on that one.
Besides being an art conservation student, I have good technical skills and I work as a painter. Creating something together, decorating a wall or something else is a thing I can do, if you fancy.
