About Me

Hehe, a hard topic for an more or less introvert person :)
Since I don't like posting all the shit about me on social media like Facebook, Instagram and others, I can share the basics.
The things I trully love:
Exploring the world, meeting new people, conversations, nature, learning something new.
Anyway - isn't it a bit boring to know everything about the person before you meet? Where's the fun?

Don't panic - I have my towel!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: In general more or less rock, pop-rock, britrock, hard rock (The Beatles, Oasis, Muse, The Doors, Jose Gonzalez, Metallica, Aerosmith, Suede, Nirvana etc.), some local bands. Meanwhile - if there's a great song in whatever genre (Rihanna, Eminem, 30 Seconds to Mars and so on) I can easily get addicted to a certain song :)
Books : E.M.Remarque, Jack London, Mark Twain, Edgar Allan Poe, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Stanislaw Lem.
Movies: Slumdog millionaire, Trainspotting, City of Gods, Into the Wild, Across the Universe, Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, The Weeds, the Secret Life of Walter Mitty, geoscience and history documentaries

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

couchsurfing.com - define amazing first!?
Lets's leave this topic for real people meeting in real life and telling stories :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well, I have a shower here - sometimes it's all what you need! ;)
Other things - my company (usually I am quite an alright person to spend time with), private room, kitchen, fridge, washing machine, spare bicycle (even two if I am not using one), greenish safe backyard for a tent, a local tour with perhaps a bit wrong facts about the city If I have some time for that, perhaps a pub tour :)

Meanwhile - I stick myself to some certain limitations for my potential guests. Let me explain myself. Unless there's an total emergency (blizzard, hurricane, frost, stolen wallet, passport, some asshole host or so on) I don't host people for one night. So if you have a connecting flight tomorrow or sth similar, take a hostel. There are many cheap ones here, 5-10€ per night.
Why so? I am lazy. I try to provide a clean bedding linen for my guests, So somebody has to wash it. Like I said - I'm lazy. Other reason - my home is a place for friends, family and potentially new friends ;)
