ABOUT ME

www.instagram.com/adam_the_tourist

rather travel than work
rather nature than city
rather bar than disco
rather wine than beer
rather people than loneliness
rather time than money

Professional dreamer:-)I'm trying to travel, to meet people and get known other cultures as much as I can. Even if I'm a bit shy and I'm not very talkative, I'm still a good listener ;)

In 2013&2014 I've hitchhiked all the way from the UK to Afghanistan, on the way in Iran I met my current wife !! :) which is the most amazing thing in my life and the best thing that happened to me thanks to CS :) After 2 years on distance, now we are together in the UK, starting a new life! In the meantime, we'd love to travel at any time we can and enjoy !

PHILOSOPHY

1. to treat people the way I want to be treaten
2. discover and experience as much as possible

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Always good- I've met such a great people here! Also some of my best friends I've met here:)
I feel better as a host, maybe I'm too shy and don't know how (and don't like) to ask people for help.

Interests

hitchhiking, music, - I love to discover new music during travelling:) My future guests- if you have any good beats from your country-but in your language, please share some with me:))
I'm also very into politics and current situation in the world.
I like to travel to eastern countries, especially in Ukraine and Romania I feel like at home, been there many times. I love hitch-hiking, meeting new, positive-thinking people and getting to know other points of view. And hitch-hiking- did I mention this?:)
I adore mountains, hiking and being outside from civilization for some time:-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My second and last trip to Afghanistan and Pakistan, meeting all the amazing people there and even spending a night in a prison cell, arrested by the Talibans!

Packrafting alone for 3 days in Tara Canyon- total immersion in most stunning wild nature, white water rafting,camping- I love it

Spending alone a night in Petra was unforgettable experience :)

Went bungee jumping 3 times- twice from 45metres, once from 95.

2 weeks of hitch-hiking in turkish and iraqi Kurdistan was pretty amazing thing for me!
