PHILOSOPHY

A ship in harbour is safe. But that's not what ships are built for.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Complete novice right now. But I want to couch surf to help expose me to the local cultures, ways of thinking and people in the places I am travelling through on my worldwide adventures.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed once so far in Bucharest, Romania (the country of my birth). Now that I've gotten a taste of couchsurfing craving for more

Interests

Love being active with my body, playing futsal/football/skiing/surfing/walking in nature.

Into pranayama (breathing exercises) a little bit and meditate everyday. Not for any religious reasons but as a way to experience life more fully

Also like to read/watch a good TV series to recharge the batteries. But at the same time really enjoy socialising with people. But I find myself less and less interested in loud partying.
