About Me

CURRENT MISSION

being happy and make others happy with healthy life style:)

ABOUT ME

I have a cat. And it is really crazy cat. But I love it:) I like cookies and love chocolate. And I kill anything and anybody for it. Haha, joke I'm not a serial killer or something. Hope CS won't take my profile away cuz I mentioned the word kill. Thank god I haven't mentioned bomb, cuz that is one of the words that people around u usually start panicking. Big time :)
And I like aliens. Would love them even more if they actually existed. Little greeny bastards :D

PHILOSOPHY

Missing someone isn't about how long it has been since you have seen them or the amount of time since you've talked. It's about that very moment when you're doing something and you wish that they were right there with you.

ALso:
€œEach smallest act of kindness, reverberates across great distances and spans of time --affecting lives unknown to the one who'€™s generous spirit, was the source of this good echo. Because kindness is passed on and grows each time it's passed until a simple courtesy becomes an act of selfless courage, years later, and far away. Likewise, each small meanness, each expression of hatred, each act of evil.
- Dean Koontz, From the Corner of His Eye

And my philosophy of life in one poem:
Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons.

Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul. With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Max Ehrmann, "Desiderata"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.
- Blake nicely described how I perceive the world. It's all about personal experience and making lasting friendships that are in a way eternal. They can change the course of our lives. That's what it counts. That's what makes your life richer and broadens your horizon. Long live the CS!!

It also reminds me of the Einstein's theory of relativity - if you're having the blast of your life, one hour passes by in a second and if you're bored one second feels like an eternity.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

During the year, I don't travel much, cuz I have to finish colledge. But in the summer I would like to visit as many countries as possible :)

Interests
