About Me

There is a saying - show me your friends and I will tell everything about you. As it has been always a complicated task for me to describe myself, I can tell what I really appreciate in other people - honesty, trustfulness, friendliness, thankfulness. Besides that I feel more comfortable with open minded people who understand there is not one and only limited option for particular situation, meaning, religion, etc.
Therefore self evident is that I find it much easier to communicate with people having these characteristics mentioned above. People having these characteristics are my friends.

I believe my mission in life is to learn, to explore, to find out, to share and meanwhile to appreciate and enjoy every moment we have here and now. Not an easy task, but possible.
Living is about walking a path not about reaching a target.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing for me means a possibility to meet nice and open minded people, exchanging knowledge and experience, and also finding out and learning about other cultures, countries, philosophies and sharing my knowledge with other people.
Of course not always we have to dig deep. :) Sometimes it is ok just to have a beer and play or listen to some music.

However, I assume couchsurfing is the most useful community network in the world that gives you a possibility to transform virtual communication to getting into contact in real life.
