About Me

To live, travel and try to experience of what is possible in this world is my main goal.
I love cooking and try different food from places that i visit. I want to learn more about different cultures. i'm currently not home but when i do, I usually like to spend time in hanging out with friends, reading books or practicing new languages

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Have now surfed quite a few couches, and had a number of visitors as well. i love the idea of making new friends and getting to know different cultures.

Interests

I love nature and generally just to be outside. I enjoy spending time around people who have a good sense of humor.

Music, Movies, and Books

i can't point on a specific music genre, i don't really care about the language or the style. if it sounds good i can listen to it.

THE JOURNEY TO ITHACA

When you set out on your journey to Ithaca,
pray that the road is long,
full of adventure, full of knowledge.
The Lestrygonians and the Cyclops,
the angry Poseidon — do not fear them:
You will never find such as these on your path,
if your thoughts remain lofty, if a fine
emotion touches your spirit and your body.
The Lestrygonians and the Cyclops,
the fierce Poseidon you will never encounter,
if you do not carry them within your soul,
if your soul does not set them up before you.

Pray that the road is long.
That the summer mornings are many, when,
with such pleasure, with such joy
you will enter ports seen for the first time;
stop at Phoenician markets,
and purchase fine merchandise,
mother-of-pearl and coral, amber and ebony,
and sensual perfumes of all kinds,
as many sensual perfumes as you can;
visit many Egyptian cities,
to learn and learn from scholars.

Always keep Ithaca in your mind.
To arrive there is your ultimate goal.
But do not hurry the voyage at all.
It is better to let it last for many years;
and to anchor at the island when you are old,
rich with all you have gained on the way,
not expecting that Ithaca will offer you riches.

Ithaca has given you the beautiful voyage.
Without her you would have never set out on the road.
She has nothing more to give you.

And if you find her poor, Ithaca has not deceived you.
Wise as you have become, with so much experience,
you must already have understood what Ithacas mean.

-Constantine P. Cavafy (1911)
