About Me

ABOUT ME

There are two topics that I can discuss eternally - traveling and making this world better place.
I am participating in human rights activism quite a lot. In general I'm friendly, especially if there is some nice rock music and/or dark beer in the room.
Vegan, and will provide you only with vegan food if you come to visit. But nobody starved this far, no worries.

PHILOSOPHY

Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die /Kurt Vonnegut

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It makes journey unexpected. One of the most boring places I visited was Luxembourg (sorry, Luxembourg..), and I was there at winter, when it was grey and rainy. But in overall those some days there was one of the best days in whole year, because of our host and another two people he was hosting at the same time.
First couchsurfing experience as a host even convinced my parents that it's amazing. It helped me to talk easier with them about travelling in general, and now they are less worried when I am wandering around somewhere in the world.
