My dog is my kid ( good thing she has to stay at home 😅) and nobody can convince me otherwise. Ok, really now, I’m Mark, 27 years old, from Brasov, Romania but since this isn’t a job interview, screw that. I’m a (apparently) human being set out to discover this fancy planet called 🌍

Born for the outdoors, happy and excited to meet new people and hear their stories. Don’t let my apparently silent personality fool you, I like to listen before I speak and am quite a cheerful person once I get used to you. I’m funny ( sometimes, if you don’t count the bad jokes - just kidding 😅) and usually I’m the last one to find out when it rains...
If you have a nice dog I might become overly attached to it - warning has been given, just saying.

I find myself longing to become a five year old again, staring in awe with big eyes at new cities, new landscapes, new people and what not, the urge to become curios and discover everything like for the first time while trying to hard to pronounce foreign words and making the locals laugh at me for it. Hence I set out to become a traveling adventurer ( five year old in disguise) 😇

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Good question. Short answer: to learn and experience new things. Long answer: 🤔 learning keeps you young they say, so I would like to learn about new cultures and experience them first hand through traveling and living like a local. Making new acquaintances and friends along the way really do make the journey that much more interesting and memorable.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - anything with a good vibe, from dnb, alternative rock, indie, commercial, rnb, jazz, pop, you name it :)
Movies - hmm 🤔 where do i start? XD I guess I could rewatch southpaw and creed 1,2 on end ( boxing movies with redemption stories), historical, sfi, adventure movies, action movies and so on. I don’t like horror movies though, scare easily even though i’m tough otherwise xD
Books - everything self development, self help, how to, psychologies. Also, I’m a huge fan of fantasy novels and am starting to enjoy travel books as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went hiking and camping with my girlfriend and dog for a few days to Capra Lake

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach some fitness tricks ( even though I’m a smoker, I know 😅), have had two personal trainer courses.
I’d like to learn how to surf, actually I’m dying to learn surfing.
Sharing is caring, so I’d share my snacks, company, smile,stories and who know’s what else could be shared in the moment 🤷‍♂️

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laughter - sometimes I look like I have 2 left feet and everyone around is amused by it, company - I can pretend I listen ( I do for most part), Garlic on demand ( I’m from Transilvania), Help ( even though I look like I need it more) , stories, jokes, chocolate ( seriously, who doesn’t like being offered 🍫?!?)

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Netherlands, United States
