About Me

ABOUT ME

I am kind, helpful, a little serious but sometimes ironic, full of hidden colours

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I spent my very first 2 days couchsurfing when I moved to the UK in 2012. During these 2 days I met people who became my friends since then. It was an important experience in my life and I want to repeat it as many times as possible
