About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to become old and wize

ABOUT ME

A journalist who would like to know everything and speak every language, but settles with a little less. Some day I'll learn to just take it easy and enjoy.

PHILOSOPHY

I had one, but then I forgot it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A very comfy bed-sofa indeed, at your disposition whenever I'm at home and not too stressed about some stupid thing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Having stayed on a number of European (and one Asian) couches, I can only say I am amazed. I do believe people in general are friendly and hospitable.

Interests

reading, writing (and arithmetics?)

  • dogs
  • writing
  • drinking
  • reading
  • journalism
  • languages

Music, Movies, and Books

Most recently: For whom the bell tolls by Hemingway. Very good reading indeed, if you manage to ignore the annoyingly stereotypical lovestory.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

two surreal, but painfully beautiful days on an Island in the Bosporus, drinking hot tea in pouring sunlight and fraternizing with half-wild dogs, in silence.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, for one thing, I can speak some czech, a beautiful language, and I will always be ready to discuss and compare languages- it fascinates me. I can also explain the development that led up to the First World War. I experiment with sourdoughs.

I want to learn songs in other languages.
