About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See how people live and lived in other countries..

ABOUT ME

Friendly but maybe quite closed at first- then I start to be outgoing, honest, funny or strange, imaginate, tolerant but still stubborn...

PHILOSOPHY

Very simple: Everything is possible if you have will.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

First I got very suspicious about this project or website, what it was all about - very strange that strangers sleep over at strangers. But after I heard about it once it was everywhere! I met nice people who used CS and they told me it was so great. So I finally decided to take a look at the webpage and was stunned!! Good goal: To make the world smaller, make people understand each other (preferably over a drink) and make peace.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just overall great! I travelled for six weeks in Europe and mainly I used CS and met such personalites I will never forget! It's not only the landscapes of the countries I'm seeking for, but also the landscape of people's souls...

Interests

People, animals, travelling, reading, writing, working, languages, music, films - all kinds of culture, eating exotic food-or just food, going out, having a good chat, thinking...how many interests can fit in one person's life???
