I'm a media expert (mainly with OSCE) and a former journalist by education and profession.
Ended up traveling the world and lived more outside of my native country, then i've lived inside.
I enjoy exploring either by foot or by bicycle. I prefer nature and countryside to big cities (lived and worked in capitals long enough not to be interested in visiting them in my spare time).
I've been a vegetarian for all my life (but relax, i'm not trying to convert every single person i meet, i haven't even converted my wife so far).
I'm also a Green Tea addict, enough to start importing one directly from China. I can bring one, if you are interested. If you don't like green tea due to its bitterness, you haven't tasted the right one ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it is a perfect opportunity to see the world, and exploring the culture through the people.
