About Me

Last summer I graduated from the Central European university with MA in Political Science. Now I am working at the Research Council as a policy analyst.
Just came back from my first solo trip through south-east Germany and France which was tiring but amazing experience all together.
While using this app I unfortunately experienced that guys are not respectful and considering CS as tinder’s alternative. Please do not send me requests if you are a seeker of intimate adventures, I am not interested!
CS is a exchange of a good will, care and respect, it’s an exchange of experiences. Please keep that in mind when sending me requests and staying with me.
All that said, I am happy to share my home resources with you.
Accepting only fully vaccinated guests!
P.S. I am vegan, zero waste and environmentally conscious 🌱 however I will respect whatever lifestyle and eating habits you have while you will be staying at my home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

First time I experienced this way of travelling while I was in Italy with my friend. And I really liked it! For me, as sociologist, experiencing new culture and new places through the local people's narrative is the best way of travelling!

Music, Movies, and Books

Basically I like all types of music, but for the most 70s, 80s, 90s hits like Modern Talking, Abba, Bon Jovi, Smokey, Queen, The Beatles, Metallica, Rolling Stones, Ac/Dc and so on. Also I like nowadays indie, rock, new wave, post-punk music.
I usually watch science-fiction, historic dramas, documentaries.
I love to read poetry, novels, classics, but now for the most time I am reading scientific literature - about value change, political regimes, democratic transition, generations..So, yeah, I love science and therefore I am starting my PhD in this autumn!
