The feature that best describes me would most likely be curious - I always ask questions and I am constantly amazed by how much of a fascinating place world is! I never let myself say "I am too tired to do this" or "What is the point in doing that" because I believe that every single experience will make me wiser. Because of that I am never bored and I try to convince people around not to be either! Life is just too short to hold back so I wanna make the most of it - whether it's talking about literature till dawn or dancing till I can't move. I try to be fun, even though not eveyone understands my jokes (irony, people!) and open for others. If I make mistakes, I don't intend them and I hope to make them up to you as soon as possible. When I am a guest "on your couch" I will be happy to talk for hours, share my limited experience, wander through the city or cook something delicious (but vegetarian)! Anything works for me since I am flexible and can well adjust.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I cannot remember my first trip abroad - it was so long ago! That clearly shows that travelling is one of the most important components of my life and something I couldn't live without! Staying in one place for long bores me and only enhances the wish to get away as soon as possible. I want to visit places, meet people, learn languages, get to know cultures, eat traditional food and simply enjoy the world to its fullest! That is why I don't believe in hotels, which perhaps provide you with a nice and clean bed, but don't offer much more. Couchsurfing on the other hand seems like something perfect for people like me, for people who prefer to eat scrambled eggs and sleep on the floor, but in a nice company. Not only does it give the opportunity to see the country through the eyes of a local, but also to practice a language and form friendships. And that is what I am counting for!
