After years of a nomadic life, I finally settled in one place. But that doasn’t mean I’ve stoped travelling. I travel differently now: closer, more mindfulness, less often. Recently, my principle has been „Less is more””.

Traveling means meeting 💙

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here because I believe in the power of sharing (experiences, smiles, stories, couches, food, friends).
I like (and share) the mentality of CSurfers, who are trying to be rather than to have. In the last few years I've had only good, very good and very funny experiences (in London, Bratislava, Warsaw, Hungary, Poland, Italy ...) and each surfing or hosting experience gives me a lot of energy.
Most of the people that I've met through CS are now my good friends.
