About Me

Do You know how does it feel when you travel to a new country and you decide to send a couch request to a total stranger, having to fake your interest in that person (because honestly all you know about him/her is just an out-dated photo and some text on their profile).

Do you know how does it feel to COPY and PASTE your request to get lucky in this couch-roulette of random connections?

And most of times all you need is just a place to stay for a night or two.
Because it's free and usually nicer and safer than a hostel.

But then sometimes magic happens and you actually meet fascinating people, very often they become your good friends and stay in touch with you and visit you back at your home.
That's why I still do couch surfing.
For the magic.

if you are looking for a place to stay where you can do whatever you like with your free time without being bothered about entertaining your host, then be my guest.

A little about me (optional read):

I like people who speak a lot without talking too much.
My favorite food is dark chocolate, avocado and green tea.
I love cycling, swimming in lakes, walking in a forest and doing yoga.
I believe life can be quite an enjoyable experience when you look at things from the right perspective.
I am just like you, with all the ups and downs, dreams, hopes and plans.
I like to keep things simple.

To learn more, have a look at references others have written.
Otherwise just write to me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.
I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate.
All those moments will be lost in time... like tears in rain.
