About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Run, eat, sleep, repeat.

ABOUT ME

What I like to do most is running, only running. Otherwise I like to pack my bag and travel . Obviously it used to be like that. Damn injury made me stop running but will come back soon. Not traveling that much any more, must earn money. Still travel quite much tough.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since first introduction to Couchsurfing which happened quite many years ago I have been through many peculiar experiences so far. And after so many years it is still delightful even more than usual.

Not being active as I used to be, nowadays I prefer to help to build this ever growing community with great enthusiasm and joy. All the time I come up with a new sudden and unexpected couchsurfing experience and hope to keep on doing it the rest of my life.

Saw a little kid watching the half marathon in the street while licking her ice cream and me suffering the 21 k meanwhile.
