About Me

Hi everyone!

Need to update some things in the profile when I have a piece of free time😅

I'm citizen of the world (just don't feel like i belong to any place) and feel like home almost everywhere I go. Obviously I'm an travel addict. Love outdoor activities, so most of my free time I spend out in the nature, but I also enjoy a city life.
In everydays life I just try to enjoy small things, things that make me happy.

I play bongó drums with a group of people from Cuba and some other Latin countries. We arrange some open air events quite often (not concerts, but more social events where everyone can join and dance or try simple instruments), so if your lucky you'll have a unique experience of a cuban culture in a nordic country:)
I love animals and that's main reason I don't eat meat.

My big dream is to travel the whole Latin America.
I live in the heart of Oslo - Grünerløkka. Here you can find many small cafeterias, pubs, street art and nice green areas. Everything is in the walking distance (ca. 15 min from central station by feet).

!!!In my house there's no place for racism, speciesism, homophobia, xenophobia or any other kind of intolerance!!!

PHILOSOPHY

"To be" over "to have".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far very positive experience - hosted already few surfers. Surfed few times as well. And met plenty of them during my trips.

Interests

In my free time i like to climb, hike, cycle, ride snowboard, practice yoga, dance...and everything that is fun! I don't have TV for many years, but I like to watch good movies. I enjoy different types of music; from classical, reggae, rock, electronic to really heavy metal:) Also love books, especially crimes, fantasy....lately i read a lot of book of Brandon Sanderson.
....and I absolutely love to eat and cook, especially vegetarian food!
So meat is nothing you will find in my house, and i expect You to do not bring it to my home. Please mention that in your request, so I know you've red my profile:)

For not that long time ago I started to dance salsa....and I just do it couple of times a week. Basically whenever I can.

Little update...i think Couchsurfing is an brilliant idea, but there's a plenty of people that misuse it.
Fyi i don't lead a hostel and nothing similar to free accommodation neither. Still believe in good spirit of CS. Can't host more than 2 people at the same time and this depends also on my work and travels. If you want to stay with me, send me a cool request, otherwise I decline all "ctrl+c / ctrl+v" requests! This will save my and your time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen most beautiful sunset from one of the highest peaks in west part of Norway.
One of my CS motivated me to record a song with her, which seemed to be a bad idea on the beginning, but I found it so fun afterwards.
I did veeery long ski tours above 3000 mos in Georgian mountains with my hosts
.....generally everything I do is amazing;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share many travel stories, can cook a really good veggie meal, teach one of the languages, some basics of salsa, bachata, climbing.
Depending on time and weather we can join one of our cuban music events.
We can go together to the mountains if it's possible or just relax in the park with a slackline.
