Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Would love to meet nice people (kids, teens, youngsters, singles, couples, families, groups of friends, anyone is more than welcome) and share some special moments, creating good memories and exchanging laughter and knowledge.

Looking forward to meeting like-minded people, doing yoga together, speaking in and learning different languages and dances.

Would be very happy to find more people who want to make the world a better place and to come up with ideas what we can do together.

I'll enjoy walking around the town with non-smokers. I would love to meet more vegans/vegetarians. I can show you the parks, the mountains and the cosy vegatarian places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Mostly meeting up people and before I had a family, I have hosted a few times. I liked it really much indeed! Living with someone for a few days is completely different experience than just meeting up - it's like immersing into the world of that person... it's wonderful!
Now I love immersing into the worlds of people on the phone, during walks & hikes, or just chilling in parks and in the mountains.
