The most important thing for me is freedom. Freedom from 9-5 life. Freedom from all the boundaries that we create in our heads during the years. Freedom from all the forms of intoxication. Freedom from things. Freedom from my fears. I'm not always sure about the decisions I make, but I have an inner believe that I'm on the right direction. I'm learning to accept life as it is. Without learning, I'm nothing. Travelling, exploring new places and meeting people are among my biggest passions. I love long walks, conversations about everything and debates. I am a book worm. I cannot survive without a good read. I adore nature. I like hiking, cycling and trying new sports.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I was a member of Hospitality club, before joining CS. Couchsurfing is a great place to meet people from all over the world. I went on bike tours and explored cities with locals while travelling. I surfed with my friends in Sweden, Portugal and Andorra, not always with my profile though - that's why I don't have many references so far. I also hosted few people in my home country.
