About Me

I will not be here anymore due to the recent policy, but find me on other hospitality sites with the same username.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing for me is an opportunity to meet amazing people I'd have never met otherwise. I just love it, when there is a person you've never seen before from a place you've never been to, and you sit in the kitchen and talk about all kinds of stuff as old friends. Some of these people left me inspired and overwhelmed with plans, with some we could discuss the ideas and thoughts that were really important to us, with others discovered new places, hung out and just had a lot of fun.

Interests

I love mountains and all that comes with it, like hiking, trekking and camping.
On the other hand, I'm interested in linguistics, how languages work.
Apart from that, I like reading books, meeting friends, learning new things and seeing new places.
