About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Holiday!

ABOUT ME

Well, I'm 21 and I'm still studying. As of now, I am in Turkey, having finished my school year with the Erasmus exchange programme. I'm eager to see more about the coutry I have lived in for almost a year.

PHILOSOPHY

I can't think of anything… Maybe I'm just too young and unexperienced to have a philosophy yet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I know only one half of Couch Surfing, I have stayed at a couch, but I haven't hosted anyone yet, since I'm not offering a couch now.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Almost none now, I'm staying at my first place, but I was lucky to find a nice, friendly and hospitable host.

Interests

Well, the most "normal" hobbies would be probably playing computer games, surfing the internet and playing the piano. Then it gets worse. My interest in living history or fantasy is more focused on making the historical stuff rather than actually using it in fighting or role-playing games - well, unless you count archery. And learning languages that virtually nobody speaks is also an activity that has raised a few eyebrows…
Back to normal; I'm not a sportsman, but I'm not against walking or cycling trips into nature. I've also been enjoying whitewater canoeing recently.

Music, Movies, and Books

The Harry Potter series (preferrably books), The Lord of the Rings (or rather the Middle-Earth legendarium as a whole), Eragon, The da Vinci Code, Jules Verne, Ernest Thompson Seton, Jaroslav Foglar (to name at least one Czech)…

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, traveling around Turkey with Indra and surviving more than one day is surely a great deal! :-D

Teach, Learn, Share

I can't think of any useful extraordinary things at the moment, but surely I can find some useless extraordinary things. So if you want to learn something about Elvish writing, feel free to ask. :-D
