About Me

CURRENT MISSION

exploring the world

ABOUT ME

Vagabond, I'm trying to settle down, but apparently can't stay at one place for more than 6 months.
I love traveling and meeting new people, learning new languages, cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

Per aspera ad astra

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hang out with other couchsurfers. I don't have a place to host right now.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I tried CS only once when I traveled to Vienna and it was a really great experience for me. It's also very useful for me when I move to different cities/countries and don't know anybody at new place, so I can meet people and hang out :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
