About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Look around a bit

ABOUT ME

As a coin has two sides there are two sides of me - Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

I'm by nature shy guy but if needed I can be pretty straight forward. If I don't like something I (try to) say it.

I tend to be active and do stuff and not just sit on my but although once in a while I spend whole weekend watching movies.

I love nature and mountains. Yet I am afraid of heights and scared of big cities.

In civilization I have ZERO orientation sense. I walk twice around the block and have hard time to find the way back. Nevertheless, if you set me free in the nature the situation is exactly opposite and I can find my way around just fine.

And there are not only good things about me as once in while I get pretty moody...

PHILOSOPHY

Live a balanced live - learn a little and think a little and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day a little (Robert Fulghum)

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
