About Me

The best way to find out how I am is to send me a request, stay with me or meet me up ;)
What I think about myself? I'm an open-minded person who likes exploring, making new experiences of any kind (preferably handcrafts, don't like screens of any device very much - too passive for me), talking to and sharing with people (you can learn so many wonderful things without even realizing the learning process).
On the other hand I am pretty impatient and get angry if things don't work as I want them to (but once you know that about yourself you can start to work on it, right? :) ).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I find it amazing to meet people from the whole world, exchange with them, learn how to cook typical dishes from their countries, explore a new place with a local person or show the town where I live to somebody who's never been there before (if you try to look at your home town with eyes of a stranger, you'll find out that there are many things you didn't have a slightest idea about, which makes your home town really interesting!). Basically you stay at home and travel at the same time.

Interests

I really enjoy exploring unknown places (especially from the bird view), long walks through a city, hiking in the mountains, swimming in the natural lakes around Regensburg, cycling trips (I would love to go along the Danube river once: from Schwarzwald to the black sea), collecting black&white postcards, learning foreign languages and use them in praxis, cooking and tasting new recipes from foreign countries, running sushi, brunches, bavarian "Biergarten", black&white puzzle...and much more!

I like spending my time doing creative things like painting pictures, printing on a cloth, sewing...I would also love to learn how to work with wood and make my own furniture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been brave and strong enough to change things in my life I did not like. To take a step further. Hopefully I'll be able to do the same in the future.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to prepare typical Czech dishes (although I don't like eating them very much because they are too heavy for my stomach, I know how to cook them), how to play basic guitar chords, how to sew with a sewing machine, how to say some basic words and phrases in Czech, German and Russian...

I would love to learn how to play piano, how to speak Hungarian, how to make home-made pasta, how to sew my own clothes...

A can share my life stories, experiences, knowledge, my appartement and my food with you!
