Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Same reason as you are. I am not a fan of fancy hotels and itineraries, I love traveling on budget, meeting new people, chat with locals and share experience, staying over or even get together just for a drink, dinner or chat.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a musical eclectic. You can meet me in a mosh pit on a punk concert, vibing to Beethoven or singing Taylor Swift in a karaoke bar. When some music touches my soul, I don't care what the genre is. Same with books (currently reading five different biographies) and movies (LOTR extended version once a year, Downfall when depressed, Jane Austen adaptations when sad, Asterix & Obelix: Mission Cleopatra and Sister Act anytime). Be warned: I am a professional movie, books and music crybaby.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Roadtrip to Portugal in a tire truck. In 10 days I learned more about myself than in couple of years before. For a week I shared the tiny truck cabin with a strange older man, needed to improve my communication and toleration skills, had to compromise and be more asertive than ever. But also I made a great friend, saw four countries and on my very improvised way back home I found out I can rely on myself more than I ever thought I could.
