About Me

*****I curently live in Brussels. I am usually in Bulgaria in this period 07-09.2017****

I am a very widely interested person. Most of what i like and often looking for is the unknown, it is exciting. I love the unexpected and it often brings me a lot of happiness and laugh, smiles.
Connecting with people and sharing energy is often making me happy. I wont hide i like the STRANGE in all its variations. I would do all the experiments.
I am really open-minded and i have been working on it, with my goal of not being able to be confused about nothing.
I like sharing moments, intimate one but here we dont talk about sex. I find quite exciting, showing myself, my inside world and i am really happy when other people also do it.
I have a lot of energy and power that is hidden and waits for this totally unpredictable and wonderful moment so that i can release it and express myself (i dont know what i talk about). Sometimes i feel that i need this moment so strong that i will lay down and start whirling on the floor from some enormous pleasure and happiness, laughing with full throat.
BUT i can also be really calm and even quite. This is my other side.
I am really calm person, peaceful. I love reading, good communication, TEA, food, the warmth of the fireplace, etc.

I also like to cook and will be happy to cook sth Bulgarian for you. I think our kitchen is really delicious and will be glad to share our tastes with you. maybe exchange recipes.

I am cinematographer and photographer, but feel as an artist. I would like to do everything connected with art, it is so inspiring. As a hobby i do some small metal wire scultures and also paintings from construction foam.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A lot I wrote already up. I am looking for adventure, for the UNEXPECTED, for the love and emotions we share when travelling.
I feel hunger for the WORLD and for all this knowledge that comes with travelling, for this luck and sometimes unluck that follows us, and the people you meet on the road and for the amazing help and love these people give to you. It is marvellous.
People in the cities watch only in a bad way, they forgot that we are people and if we dont help, support and love each other, we are lost. So I am looking for these people who still preserved or came from the "plain world".
And i would like to live all your emotions and to share mine, not hiding them.
I am for the PRINT that every each one of us leaves in each one of us.

Interests

As i said i love the unknown. I like to go in the nowhere and find beauty there.
I like to get lost and to find, find whole worlds.

Sharing is something i would like to get more deep into, on some level unknown.
Example: after wathing the movie SEVEN SERVANTS i went to a friend of mine and i did something alike that i saw in the movie, i stuck a finger in his ear and we were talking, without me taking the finger out, then his girlfriend also joined and we kept staing like that for 20 min, talking about this philosophy and other stuff, looking at us in the mirror, (we made a picture - look in the gallery) and everything was a bit like game. I took it off and went to my room and then suddenly i felt all the magic, energy and connection that we just had, and i was so shocked that i could speak, just no words, could explain what just happend but it was sth unique. So i went back 2 times to his room to just THANK him for what just happend i could say nothing more. HE HAD FELT THE SAME.
So i am looking for emotions like this, maybe not using my finger but you got it..

Music, Movies, and Books

Jazz, swing, blues, classical music, Kafka, Boris Vian, Herman Hesse; Master and Margaret; Amer, Salo, The color of paradice, European and Iranian cinema

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I wanted to become BLIND for a moment.
Here is the story: in Prague i went to a UNVISIBLE exhibition, and happily i had the luck to enter alone(usually in groups) together with a blind guide(she) for 60min in a total darkness, entering in different rooms of an apartament, rooms, which present you different locations and atmospheres(kitchen, grossery, woods, museum, street, bar etc). You walk with the guideness of this woman(in my case), you can ask everything that comes to your mind connected with her way of life and you try to understand what you touch, to understand the life of a blind person. Slowly by slowly your other senses start to be more sensitive and you can definitely feel that. The voice/sound becomes the most important for you and suddenly the level of conversation changes in sth that you never felt before, no matter how deep converstations you had before, you dont feel the need to see, everything is sound and this sound is much more truthful than seeing. You start to say yourself that your eyes are lying you, and this is because we often judge by the look, no matter what this person says, so you loose this visual judgement and start to judge only by the words that come from the heart of this person. I would say in this moment you learn much more than in the other way around. So after 50 min i was so much amused by what i am feeling, and about that that as a visual artist i wish i couldnt see for some period of time.
I had one of the most beautiful conversations, almost got inloved into this VOICE, which was the whole world in this case. We had this intimacy that i said i am looking for(up in the profile). I asked her if they often touch peoples faces to recognise them, and she said - no. At the peak of all the shared emotions there, I asked her if we can do this face recognition, and this was sth hard to be explained, all together till this moment.
So after that i was so amused and full of unexplainable emotions, that i was sitting in this total darkness with this woman and suddenly lost all my words. I told her that i cannot say nothing more, that i am speechless.
I think i thanked her for all this magic, then we went out and she just went to her room and that was IT. I was left there, slapped by what had just happend in the last hour and couldnt say a word. After hour/ hour and half i was still feeling speechless.
From then on i am passionately recommending this to people and every time they get amused how fresh i tell the story (as if it happened yesterday), but it happend 2 years ago and i cannot forget it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would be happy to share my view and knowledge about cinema and photography.
It would be also really nice if we make together some dinner and share the difference between our worlds, maybe in the company of some good wine or aromatic tea.
I am curios about the world so offer me everything.
I can offer also Bulgarian and Polish lessons, but please dont learn (only) the vulgar words!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook and have a tea/wine. We can talk about paintings, photography, cinema, philosophy, love, wisdom hah.
You can share your thoughts, problems with me, i am really good listener and will be happy to help if possible.

WE CAN SHARE!

PEACE AND LOVE TO EVERYONE.
Thank you for all the beauty!
