PHILOSOPHY
I find satisfaction out of experiences. Generally I think life is great and I try not to complain too much, that's my motto.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've been on CS since 2006. I'm the kind that really, really "misses the old CS". I hosted a lot in the past when I lived in Budapest, Hungary, because I was living by myself and I had a huge appartment. I didn't host a lot recently because I tend to live in crazy expensive cities with tiny flats. I've given free stuff through CS when i didn't need it anymore. I have had my best CS experiences as a guest in Russia. I think we tend to have misconceptions about countries and cultures in general.
