Hey all, my name is Marcel, I'm 24 years old, originally from Slovakia, currently working in Prague, Czech Republic as a lawyer. Traveler soul, wanderlust and desire for life brought me to Couchsurfing in 2012 and since then I met bunch of awesome people as traveler or host. I usually travel with my girlfriend Adela, check her profile too: https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/adelanedbalova

I DO NOT HOST AT THE MOMENT!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is unique experience, when you are getting rid of "tourist label" during your travels and start to sense things from the another perspective, from view of locals. One time in LA after 13h flight from Europe, when we arrived to our host house, we were immediately drag into small house party and we felt like home. Imagine coming to hotel, I bet you will end up in bed exhausted from jetlag. Couchsurfing, for me, is the way how to find friends in the new town/ city guide/ or just someone to hang out and this is making the world a better place. I can't imagine better traveling experience. I've already surfed in Warrington (UK), Manchester (UK), Oslo, Stockholm, New York City, Los Angeles, Vienna, Salzburg, Brussels, Rotterdam and Amsterdam.
