Overview
About Me
Right now I'm during my gapyear (or rather: gap-half-a-year) with my beloved wife. Travelling, visiting new places and meeting different people has always driven us and we will be happy to share our passion and experiences with you.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Meeting the locals and spending time with them is the most advanced way of travelling - it helps to deep dive into the local culture, gain unforgettable experiences and truly understand what drives people in the place one visits.
Interests
Travelling - sailing, backpacking, offroad trips;
Car - particularly the crappy Land Rover which I constantly modify and repair;
Fixed gears - passion transformed into occupation as I've founded a company which manufactures fixed gears;
Photography - I take photos professionaly for my company and as I travel.
