About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make new friends, visit new places, learn about different life philosophies and become a better person overall!

ABOUT ME

Dear csurfers,
I am 27 yrs old and currently living in Toronto, Canada. With my contract expiring at the beginning of the 2015 I will be looking into new destinations during my well deserved vacation. I'm not interested in tourist ''hot spots'' and western style of ''vacationing''. I am looking for first-hand experiences of ordinary local people like you, living in the country/city where I am travelling. I would love to hear your life story, opinion on the most actual social, economical or sport topics. Football (or soccer) is my big passion so those conversations are always very interesting and emotional :) I would love to learn about your country, city, culture and spread the good word wherever I go!

PHILOSOPHY

“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” – St. Augustine
Every man dies. Not every man really lives.
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain
“Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail” – Ralph Waldo Emerson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Working schedule and lifestyle of my roommate and I makes it almost impossible to host someone while still keeping it as a pleasant experience. However if you are visiting Toronto I am more than happy to take you out for a dinner or some sight seeing and that way contribute to the awesome CS community :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Looking forward to my first cs experience :) As I get older I find myself more and more travelling alone, cs is def a great opportunity to meet local people and make new friendships

Interests

Good friends, good books and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.
