Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The whole idea of couchsurfing is fantastic. Makes me feel young and alive: Meet people, laugh and have fun about differance between cultures, traditions. Eat togheter and bring peace and understanding in every house.

Holiday is for me: meet people, taste the food, taste the area, smell the air. Enjoy the nature.
Biking, running, swimming, preferably activity's. Triathlon.
