About Me

Books are better than people. Sad songs make us happy. Let's discover the city on our own way and then party on the rooftoop. Make friends.

I like good, real food and by real I meant from the garden or local gardener. Shopping is a nightmare for me cause I read all the labels.
Most of the time I don't eat meat and I can go months without it, but I'm not a vegetarian and there are few reasons: I like to eat fishes/seafood, I listen to my body and from time to time I feel like I just need it, I enjoy trying new things and local cuisines especially when I'm travelling. So if you'd like to cook something at my place it's not forbidden to cook meat ;)

Most of the time I am rather a quiet person. I love to be surrounded by good people. I don't like to force myself to speak a lot, but if I feel comfortable it just comes naturally.
In general I like to spend a day reading books, listening to music, watching movies, writing a journal, wasting time on useless things (that's what I'm great at but maybe it's not the best to teach you ;)) but if I'm in a good mood and in a good company I can be more active, it can end up with drinking wine or grabing some beers, going to the gig, joking, laughing and having fun.
I love climbing rooftoops!

"To act on a bad idea is better than to not act at all, because the worth of the idea never becomes apparent until you do it".

"My biggest fear is losing memory because memory is what we are. Your very soul and your very reason to be alive is tied up in memory".

“The free soul is rare, but you know it when you see it - basically because you feel good, very good, when you are near or with them”.

"In the end, I am not interested in that which I fully understand".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To prove myself wrong and meet people who are better than books.
To know more about life in different places, hear the stories, exchange ideas, find my own place in this world and to grow as a person. Make friends (yes, friends, couchsurfing is not a dating site, just reminding it cause it seems like some people forget about this, I'm not interested in anything more). Practice languages.

!!!To climb local(no, not the typical touristy viewpoints) rooftoops in different cities! If you know any, take me there :)!!!

If I'm using couchsurfing as a surfer then it's totally not because I'm interested only in your couch and shower, I want to see the world as you see it so if you have some time to spend with me it's great! I'm interested in your own story, favourite places in the city as well as biggest dreams and fears in your head.
I can say that I've learned to appreciate good company and the essence of couchsurfing when I was travelling alone.

If I host it's because I know how it feels to be a traveller in a big city which you don't know :)
