About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Life is a journey and not a destination

ABOUT ME

As a husband and wife we decided to take one year off from our busy work and life schedule as we wanted to explore the world and to experience other cultures. Our aim is to find the purpose and understand the meaning of our life far away from cosy home and sterile office desk.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is too short to wait for retirement.
Life is a journey and not a destination.
The best things in life are for free.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We do not have any experience in this area, but we hope we are not to old for this experience! NEVER IS TO LATE as they say. On the Annapurna trek we met a young couch surfer who introduced this great concept to us and we would like to give it a try!

Teach, Learn, Share

Being mature and wise, we can share our experience about emigrating from eastern European country to the biggest island in the world, Australia. We can share our secret what to do to take one year off from work in order to travel the world. And this is just the beginning...
