About Me

CURRENT MISSION

finding my own way in life

ABOUT ME

For me the most exciting thing in the world is traveling and by doing so not only seeing places, but also meeting new people, and in general discovering the world.

PHILOSOPHY

When you get up in the morning feel happy and thankful for the beginning day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just recently had two very positive couch surfing experiences when I was able to surf by notifying on a short-term

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Did couch surfing recently in Akko and it was an amazing experience. Love hosting friends at my place and did it many times not through couchsurfing.

Interests

I love reading. I cannot live without books! I also love dancing. This is what really makes me happy. When I dance I forget about everything(kind of a meditation for me). I love art, film, theater, photography. I am also interested in meeting people who create art, because this is something that fascinates me.

Music, Movies, and Books

Ah, a lot, but to name a few "Black cat, white cat", "Forest Gump", "Emilie", "Chocolate". Music: jazz, swing, rock, classical, alternative. Books-really a lot. Right now I have a Herman Hesse period. But I think the two favorite ones are by Julio Florencio Cortázar "Rayuela" and By Bulgakov " Master and Margarita"
