About Me

What should be in this section changes every now and then depending on new experiences that shape me and evaluate my priorities. What is stable, though, is my appetite for exploring foreign lands and making new friends in seemingly hopeless conditions. Despite passing years I am still crazily optimistic and enthusiastic about doing things and I still dislike staying inactive and complaining. I don't let myself be discouraged easily and believe that impossible is nothing, providing that one doesn't give up.

PHILOSOPHY

Impossible is nothing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I LOVE HOSTING PEOPLE and surfing somebody's couch. Thanks to CS I have made new lifelong friends. Keeping that in mind, I just want MORE.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Both surfing and hosting. I have hosted people from Venezuela, Lebanon, Argentina, China, Bangladesh, Germany, Poland, etc., and surfed in Czech Republic, Austria, Germany, the Netherlands, England... ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

A. Carter, A. Byatt, S. Waters, McEvan, Karpowicz, Chutnik, folk mythology.

Blue Valentine, Samotari, Take this Waltz, Your Sister's Sister, Gorzkie Mleko, Kieś›lowski's all films (favs are Jasminum and Afonia i Pszczoł‚y), and many more

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitch-hiking trip through Europe,

Erasmus in Munich,

Wild camping in the middle of Belgrade!

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe CS is not about sleeping for free at some place and having a free city guide. What I expect when hosting/surfing is an EXCHANGE: I put effort to hosting you, you put effort when visiting me.

I like trying out different foods and drinks. Eating and drinking is for me an integral part of CS.

If you want to hitch-hike I am ready to share my experiences and stories. I have hitch-hiked over 11 000km in different countries and know a little bit about that. :)

I can also teach you bits of "useless knowledge" which will boost your creativity. Curious? Come and check.
