About Me

CURRENT MISSION

moving to london and starting my masters!

ABOUT ME

i would say i'm a free, happy and thankful guy. i love traveling and meeting new people. cultural shock and being in a completely new environment gives me a natural high. i guess i'm into awkward social situations for some reason. i'm a nature freak, i enjoy hiking and camping.

i can say i'm really easy going, i'm used to sharing, i love living with different people and having a group of friends with me so i can share as much as possible.

something else i love is live music, i go crazy in concerts and music festivals, i love the idea of tons of people feeling the same at the same moment for the same reason.

i'm really open and welcoming but i feel that i can still trust people everywhere, nothing bad has ever happened =)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i try to be fun and open.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i've received people when i was living in prague and in the tarahumara region in chihuahua mexico, not as many as i would like.

i've also welcomed total strangers and thats something that i love, i've received people that i've met in music festivals, pubs and even airports randomly to stay at my place; only great experiences have come from this.

I couchsurfed in sweden, turkey and poland, they were all great experiences. I've met really cool people and i love the idea of sharing not only your space, but your culture, your food, your time and knowledge.

Interests

i'm interested in new things, i'm one of those people that have fun. love music, especially live, i enjoy writing and taking pictures, reading and meeting new people. i like to be lost because there's always something new coming up without you planning it.

uncertainty is cool.
