I'm a calm person who appreciates sense of humour.
Different then when I grew up, through chess competition since I was 4 years old and travelling to world championships and the like.
Later on I went to poker, a switch a lot of chess players did because of the bigger money opportunities and similarity in strategy.
I started meditation as a way to improve my concentration skills and instead ended up becoming way more chill and just appreciative of the differences in everyone.

I like to just randomly walk around different towns, not the most interested in going to certain tourist spots other then to show my mom "yes i've been there". Just want to experience a bit of life in other places, and you can always go for walks even on a budget =)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was travelling from meditation center to meditation center in Europe.
Ended up meeting people I was very happy to meet instead of only seeing it as a useful tool. (we did the stays through my ex-gf profile not mine)

Music, Movies, and Books

Series it's easier to come up on the spot then movies.
The night manager, the night off, utopia, Dexter, Seinfeld

I struggle to read books, would like too, research thought I love to do, I hyperfocus everytime I want to find more about a certain subject.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I played in many world championships and european chess championships, but noone cares about chess I know
Probably people would think living in a Buddhist monastery for 9months would be something very out of the usual.
One thing I really like that I've always done is in terms of career, I always followed what I wanted, and I never ended up in a cycle of having to do things

Teach, Learn, Share

I guess I could teach anything that I was previously good at? If the person was interested
