I traveled a lot (especially the Balkans) over the past 15 years. Now with a steady job I have limited time to spend abroad traveling recklessly but I remember how great is to meet locals so I thought of showing you the city. And maybe meeting you on the other side of the planet once I am out of the cage again.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was skeptical about the idea of CF before and i needed to be persuaded by a friend of mine when we traveled to Romania. I was amazed by couch surfing so right after that i had to register myself. It is always great to meet locals.

Music, Movies, and Books

I watch tons of movies (recently I fell in love with film-noir and classic Hollywood). I listen to even more tons of music (I believe that music peaked in the late 70s/early 80s, change my mind!). And I read kilos of books (no so much time as before) - Bret Easton Ellis, Truman Capote and HP Lovecraft are my heroes (and Flannery O'Connor, Joan Didion and Donna Tartt my heroines).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiking in Albania I was invited to a wedding.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you my city (Bratislava) and teach you some obscure movies and music trivia (have you ever heard about Alice Cooper's weird new wave albums from 1980-1984 or Italian horror movies called giallo?).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good discussions and whatever I bring with me.
