Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My purpose to participate is that I would want to explore the World and learn about other cultures.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first couchsurfing experience was in summer 2010, when I hitchhiked around the Europe. Met very kind and good people in Lithuania, Poland, Germany, Netherlands, France and Italy.
My latest Couchsurfing experience was a trip Brno-Vienna-Bratislava and after that trip to Berlin.
Right now I won't be able to host anyone, because of construction works in my house.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have my own movie collection, which is very big( right now about 500 different movies and series).
In music I prefer indie rock (artists like "Kaiser Chiefs", "Bastille", "Said the Whale", "Sheppard" etc.) and alternative rock ("Linkin Park", "Manchester Orchestra", "Offspring", These Reigning Days" etc. , but also like some peaceful and pop. Opened for many music tastes.
Right now my favorite is "Arc de Triomphe" by E.M.Remarque, but I read different new books in every month. I really liked also books "Catcher in the Rye", "War and Peace" and "Master and Margarita".
