About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the World and don't grow up!

ABOUT ME

I'm an easygoing person, who absolutely loves to get to know other cultures and people. I love travelling, I love my friends, I love people who smile and who don't have bad feelings in their hearts, I love sports, any kind, I love snowboarding and rollerblading and I love children.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't understand people who try to harm or take profit from others, the world would be way a better place if each of us contributed to it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now travelling the World couchsurfing from time to time and learning everything I can about it.
I hosted many people at my flat through my last flatmate and friend Robert Malies, who was a CSer. Since his departure I don't have the same availability to host CSers, but I try to do it anytime I can, I think it's really nice to give and to share what you have with others without expecting anything in return, and CSurfing idea is exactly this!

Interests

Photography, reading, snowboarding, ciclyng, rollerblading!, climbing, running, swimming and any other one I can try!
Going to the park, watching what people do and how they behave, traveling as much as I can, going outside the city, anywhere!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Managed to learn proper German within one year (studying really a lot).
Walked against the wind and snow in the mountains under a heavy storm which was throwing us to one knee.
Helped to deliver muscle spray during a marathon while rollerblading. After 30km I was applying the spray to myself, but I manage to finish it on my rollerblades.
Quit my well paid, well located, funny and interesting job to travel the world with my girlfriend.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to cook Spanish omelette, to rollerblade, to swimm, to improve your Spanish, English or German (depending on your level), and how to use a photo camera and improve your photos (if you have no idea, I'm just an amateur)!
