PLEASE READ WELL BEFORE REQUESTING. I don't have too many requirements but they are solid.

"Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage." Anais Nin

It is the quote that made an imprint on my brain a few years ago and each time I am scared to do something it reminds me why I should do it.

I am adventurous person who refuses to live in the way we are told we should and pursues having my own path in life. Everyone who has a similar mindset is welcome on board.

I like excitement as much as I like a chill evening with quality music playing in the background. It all depends on the mood.

I'm NOT a heavy drinker or a party animal, although I do enjoy a casual drink and a nice party from time to time.

My goal: live a location independent lifestyle which allows for an excellent quality of life, including personal and financial freedom.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be part of the great shared community. I'm learning to give more unconditionally and Couchsurfing is perfect for that. I've been around for a while but I haven't actively used it. Now I want to connect to this network of amazing people again.

I wish to get the excitement of meeting new people even when I don't have the opportunity to travel.

I love watching movies but I never do it on my own. But I rarely decline an invitation to watch one.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have hitchhiked on my own for a month across Europe. I crashed on peoples's couches, I slept in parks, slept in the fields, squats, hostels.

The peak of my experience was when I was camping in a park in the middle of Prague (not smart I know). Someone stole my whole tent together with my backpack and everything in it. After an hour of trying to speak English to people who don't have the slightest understanding of it, l managed to find a police station where no-one spoke English as well. My expectations of the police helping me were crushed by an officer who with the opening started yelling at me in pure Czech for 10 minutes straight, asking me questions and expecting me to answer in Czech. After each he was getting even more mad. At one point I just sat on the couch with my head in my hands and completely ignored him.

Anyway, at the end of it, I happened to find my tent 20 meters from where I left it, thrown in a big puddle. Everything in it was soaking wet and I had to put it on the nearby bushes to make it dry, while at the same time I was protecting my territory from dozens of rats extremely interested in what was happening. The time was about 4 AM. I patiently waited the sun to rise as I was fighting with my last powers for my territory.

And this was only a small part of the whole experience. If I happen to meet you I can tell you the rest.
