About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to make as many new friendships as possible before I turn 30 and think of myself that it is too late ;) I have been on erasmus and experienced how is it to clash your home country culture with others and I must say that it's really exciting

ABOUT ME

This is not easy to describe yourself. I'm one of those I guess who make friends for life or don't make them at all. I can hang out with people in different age but I usually get along better with older than I am. I have one best male friend and one best female friend and would do anything for those two.

I can easily adopt to difficult situations and difficult personalities. Once I've been told that I am the only person in the world that will find a topic for conversation with everyone.

PHILOSOPHY

seize the day and don't regret anything in your life - you never know what will bring you tomorrow

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a very easy-going guy however I still have difficulties with so called "first impression" which I need to work on. Maybe this is actually why I joined Couch Surfing. Staying in someone's place for a night or two mobilizes you to make as good impression as possible. Couch Surfing was my own idea for this, lets just hope it works out.

I am one of those who can't sit in one place for more than a week. I love my hometown but I need to travel.

My Mom told me once after I came back from hitchhiking in Turkey and Georgia that she thinks there is nothing in the world that would terrify me. I am a confident person always looking for new adventures and I can't wait to make new friendships. I hope that CS will help me with all that.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just started and I just hope that Couch Surfing community will accept me ;) My first CS host was Bill in Key West.
