About Me

ATTENTION!
- hosting only queer people.
- Usually, I go to bed pretty early so I can host you if you plan on being home by 21:00, so that I can close the door and go to sleep. Lights or moderate noises don't bother me so you can stay up for as long as you'd like to.
- It also feels like an important piece of info to let you know I chose not to destroy spiderwebs in the corners of the room, so I live with small home spiders.

Here is a video of my place https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEAZ6HOgRPc
I rent a commercial area around 20 square meters in front of the owner's house. There is only one bed which I sleep on and I can offer it to you if you have medical issues, otherwise I can offer you a handmade feather mat on my floor. There is a small toilet room with a tiny sink with potable cold and warm water. NO shower, NO washing machine, NO refrigerator. I can't afford AC bill and it is pretty hot inside in summer mostly between the rang of 30-40°C and cold in winter 5-10°C. The place is in a nice neighborhood, I have an open Wi-Fi hot spot with unlimited traffic. You can use a small electric oven and a portable gas for cooking.
I don't support tourism and I don't like giving advice or tips about sights and places to see. And this will be my way to know if you were caring enough to read at least up until hear.

Now about me:) I can afford not doing paid jobs and spending my life changing the world to my liking, exploring myself and the world around me, self-educating and developing different skills through non-formal and informal education. I do my best to live an eco-conscious and healthy life. I'm an introvert and I like spending time with myself and I. I've learned to take care of all my needs mostly by myself and/or through mutual aid communities instead of outsourcings them through capitalism. I cut my own hair, make and repair my own clothes, mostly find and make my own food through dumpster diving, table surfing, forging...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It feels nice to feel a community "behind my back" around the globe. I believe sharing resources I dispose will help to deconstruct capitalism. Yet, it is important for me not to contribute to exploitation of resources so privilege check is a must.
