Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think couchsurfing is a great way to get to know interesting people, and learn new things.

The first time when I've heard about couch-surfing was when I met Stephen, a guy who came to a friend of mine using CS. Until now I've visited Paris and Warsaw using couch-surfing, but I have bigger plans for the future.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been in the U.S. with Work and Travel in the summer of 2011, between my first and my second year of college, and I skydived in Wisconsin :)

I lived in Uganda for 10 months.

Teach, Learn, Share

When I lived in Illinois I've learned that if you want to feel good, you can do it anywhere with what you have. Regardless of conditions like where you're staying or how's the food, etc. If you complain too much you're making life too complicated and you're missing all the fun. So, do the best you can with what you have, from where you are!
