Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was too shy to use CouchSurfing before, staying in hotels instead: that doesn’t give a sense of a place, as much as meeting with locals.

Sightseeing isn’t what I’m interested in: trying to feel the real spirit of a place is more what I am interested in. That’s why I’m here on CS: looking for fascinating people while travelling through my life. I see the life as an endless journey, which becomes captivating, once you start approaching it that way.

By visiting hosts in other countries I enjoy communicating with the people, trying never use them just as a free hostel. Though I have very little time to get to know a lot of people here, I’m happy with all of the great people I’ve already met here and hope I’ll met even more!

Music, Movies, and Books

📖 I am a bookworm who loves to read a book in an original language: that is how I study languages and see the world through very different sides of it. Fiction and classics is what I love most. Those thoughtful books written hundreds years ago, but still relevant, you know.

🎵 Music is hugely depend on my mood and activity. Usually I prefer calm and voiceless tracks I’m able to work without being distracted. Unless it’s a dance time, for sure! :)

📽 Watching movies is a very exceptional activity I do too seldom to talk about. I love that kind which would make me see the world from different angles.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Mountain climbing in Alps.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to throw away the things you don’t need and enjoy your life having just those you love, giving you a very special sense of meditative freedom.

I’m very interested in a sleep, as a physiological process we need to do every single day. I am not a doctor, but as I have read, observed and experimented a lot I can probably help you starting to sleep better by sharing what I know.

Also I love to cook and would enjoy cooking for all of us.

What I Can Share with Hosts

The priceless time of a life and my observations over the world, including some experience and knowledges. And (maybe) a sense of humour.

A breakfast, a second breakfast, a lunch, a snack, a dinner. A walk and a talk.
