About Me

CURRENT MISSION

finding the balance between high and low and still not remaining in the average

ABOUT ME

I feel angrier about missed foolish mistakes than about done.

PHILOSOPHY

wooooooow. We can work it out together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

To get in touch with people on the same wavelength with a traveller's heart is the perfect way to get to know the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only the best!
I've been also travelling with hospitality club before (since 2008) and made great and positive experiences without any exception. With CS I travelled (London, Latvia, France, Turkey, Czech Rep., Sweden, ...) and hosted since I have a whole flat for myself. Besides, I showed couchsurfing friends around town and nightlife.

Interests

LITERATURE -- Fauser, Woolf, Pamuk, Zaimoglu, Kafka, Djian, Vian, Murakami, Zafon, Hermann, Klein, Marai, Rimbaud, Wedekind ... need more bookshelves.

MUSIC-- Older stuff like Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Neil Young, Edith Piaf, Jacques Brel, The Beatles, Classic: Schumann, Chopin, Mozart, Dvorak//younger stuff like The National, Mumford&Sons, Goran Bregovic, Arcade Fire ... just the whole discography of amazings artists

SPORTS-- FENCING!!, climbing, athletics, winter sports, would like to do some horseback riding from time to time (and on TV: biathlon)

TRAVELLING!

STANDING in laboratory and brewing some nice, explosive compounds. But in the maintime I try to figure out how to use my knowledge for improving our environmental protection system and work on catalysts for degradation of toxic compounds.

PASSION - nature, photography, baking, arts, handcraft, BBQ with friends, reading newspaper, drinking coffee, wine, enjoying cheese, olives

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The ground up from 8000 meters, falling, sky diving.
Plankton shining in the sea, full moon, naked swimming.
The sunrise, coming home, weekends.
Caminho portugues, walking, arriving at myself.

To get a tiny idea of what it means to be alive as a human.

Teach, Learn, Share
