About Me

CURRENT MISSION

never stop exploring

ABOUT ME

I am a very communicative, very optimistic, a little bit lazy, but ready to help people. I want to try as much as possible in this life (except things that do not much my principles). Want to live in the sea side and do nothing, but cannot afford it as there is a bunch of things to try before

PHILOSOPHY

I live for being a good person. Want people to be more kind to each other. I do not care about a lot of things and try to be patient. Do not seriously believe that all this stuff connected with planning your life really works.
upd. I would better do something even if it is risky (do not mix risky with dangerous). Also I am always open for new idea and thoughts.
Easy going person (can go in multiple directions)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

can't host due to living in a dorm, but still I am always ready to hang out

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Tried it once and want again. I love the whole idea of couchsurfing and hope that one day will be able to host people that shared their shelters with me.

Interests

One of my main interests is learning. Not only subjects at university, but also stuff that is not related to academics. Despite the fact that I study business I like reading about philosophy and famous thinkers. Love logic and puzzling questions that make your head to explode.
Keen on reading. My favorite writer is Remarque, I have rad almost all of his books. Also like Hemingway, Show I., Moem etc.
Sometimes I feel like watching a movie,however each movie has to be watched in a suitable mood and I hate watching movies alone, even though I do not speak much during the movie I have to discuss what was on the screen when the movie is over.
Love sports, especially kinds related with some level of risk in them. Had been doing martial arts for almost 4-5 years (do not remember). Sadly, do not have time to practice now due to lack of time. Love my bicycle can ride it for hours without stops if the weather is nice. Also play floor hockey almost every week with friends.
Enjoy toys for grown-ups that require practice and some patience like yo-yo, kendama or puzzles (not those when u have to collect a picture, but when u r given metal pieces connected together that u have to unlock).
I can keep on telling as the list of my interests is quite huge. The best way to know me and to share my interests is to meet me, be sure we will find a common ground.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Fight club, Fighter, Lock Stock and 2 smoking barrels, Hooligans, Forrest Gump, Green mile, Route 60, Irish man, Scarface, Godfather (I did not like the last part as the first two parts)...can keep on naming, but these movies I am always ready to watch
Books: All E.M. Remarks books. I like H.S. Tompson books and Karlos Kastaneda books about [philosophy. It is so difficult to remember what I like and what to dislike. I like reading, but with time passing by I interpret books in different ways.
music...that one is difficult as I have almost 5000 songs on my ipod...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

nothing really amazing yet....I have big aims, but everything will be later now I am gaining more experience.
upd. I have jumped with a parachute and passed the driving exam

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to play yoyo or kendama. I am always ready to learn. I think that each conversation is a small lesson ,because each person learns and teaches. It is important to understand what is worth learning.
