Since I graduated from High School in West Texas in 2004 I can't stay too long in one place. For various reasons (studies, work) I spent some longer time in Spain, Latin America, India and traveled some other countries. I'm interested how the life goes in different places. That is also why I like to stay longer. I don't really like just to travel, I usually do some project that allows me to stay enough time and go little deeper. I prefer hubbub places, where there are many things to observe, but I also love to escape to the mountains.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I always welcome people in my place when I have the chance.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've never had a bad experience - I have hosted several interesting people and also I've been hosted by very interesting locals. I don´t really have to see all the monuments in the countries I visit. Many times it´s much more interesting to spend time with locals, eat with them, go to their family celebration or just join them during their everyday routine.

Interests

I've always liked to travel to see different places and cultures. In my free time I like to do sport - mostly riding bike and cross-country skying. I also love to go to the mountains and do longer hikes, but I can also always enjoy a quiet day with a book and a cup of coffee.

Music, Movies, and Books

I've always liked Latin America so my favourite author is probably García Márquez. I also like some of Hemingway's books (The Sun Also Rises for example) also Steinbeck, Kundera...
