Overview
About Me
Some people call me a wanderer. Always roaming around, exploring tiny hidden gems of the city. Doesn't matter if that's the other part of the world or my home town, I believe places are like humans - they're constantly changing, every day giving you an opportunity to find something new, something unique. Though, what I enjoy the most and where my soul feels truly free, it's nature. Long walks in the forest, hiking in the mountains, cycling around small villages nearby. I remember spending weeks in a tent right in the middle of nowhere where Wi-Fi didn't reach, and when nobody was even thinking about civilization. Or even these smaller trips just outside the city, to have a short stroll in the woods and take a break from the hustle of everyday life.
While living in Portugal I discovered the magic of creating in cafés. I use to take my watercolors and sit over a cup of coffee for literally hours, painting. There's some kind of artistic atmosphere in cafés, which gives a lot of inspiration - not only to create but also for long meaningful conversations. That's so interesting that it's the sort of a public space where you can be around people and feel quite intimate at the same time, don't you think?
Even though I'm an introvert, meeting new people and sharing each other's experiences play a big role in my life. I just need some time to open up. And when I finally do, I get pretty talkative.
Quality over quantity. If I send you a request to stay, you'll probably be the only one who receives it. I don't look for a couch to sleep on, I look for someone who I really want to meet with.
I like looking at the stars, even though I can find only up to three constellations.
I don't usually dance. But take me to a folk festival and you'll find me dancing with all those 70yo men.
Vegetarian. Let's find a place where we can both eat some yummy food.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
So far I've met so many wonderful people - some of them became my close friends, other inspired me to try something I'd never think about trying, changed my perspective or simply left me a lot of amazing memories. I try my best to do the same and add my little brick into that huge CS wall.
I've stayed with:
Antonio, Naples 🇮🇹
Benjamin, Ljubljana 🇸🇮
Joel, Lisbon 🇵🇹
Adam, Lisbon 🇵🇹
Christian, Lappeenranta 🇫🇮

Music, Movies, and Books
I'm a huge fan of Brandon Sanderson's fantasy series but my all-time favorite book is definitely 'The Master and Margarita'.
I'm that kind of person who has zero knowledge of famous football players and is behind with too many old good movies. Trying to catch up though!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Walking in the woods for a few days with a lack of water and civilization and ending up in Slovakia. Or maybe going with a guy I hadn't met before by his motorcycle to the lake and swimming in the rain?
