ABOUT ME

I'm 25 years old IT worker and daily biker. I love to learn about photography and watch documentaries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I did some bike trips in remote areas in Romania and local people offered to host me a lot. They had no clue about Couchsurfing whatsoever. It really touched me.
However, I created my Couchsurfing account before that experience because I felt that supporting travelers is the right thing to do.
