About Me

In a nutshell - curious, philosopher, positivist, pacifist, journalist and an eternal student living and working in Slovakia (currently) & travelling around the world as much as possible. I lived in Australia for a year, in Dubai for a few months, and so on :)
During my short life I learned, that there are no coincidences and everything has its own purpose. I am open to new challenges, and if something really inspires me, I am willing to devote it all of my time. Finally, we live only once, so why not to do all of our things with passion? :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I used to be a curious couchsurfing newbie.... two years ago. But thanks to some great traveling experiences, I fell in love with this way of interacting with couchsurfers abroad. But every journey begins with a blank page so I am trying to fill it with some new and unforgettable moments spent with great people.

Interests

local food experiences, enjoying local atmosphere, everything about coffee, religions, world politics, startup community, IT and science, learning something new everyday, traveling, meeting new people, solving unsolvable problems and so on.. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm in love with jazz (especially with the Middle-Eastern jazz), but I also love an alternative, acoustic, classical, ethno, folk, instrumental music and SWING! But anyway, I am passionate about listening almost every genre.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had a chance to see Kumari in her palace in Kathmandu, Nepal. For those who don’t know, Kumari is the only living Goddess, worshiped by Hindus and Nepali Buddhists.

Teach, Learn, Share

As a regular coffee geek I can teach you how to make the best cup of coffee you will ever drink! - well, but depends on supplies :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

share conversation on any topic, traveler's tales, my personal stories and opinions. I am very curious and open minded person, willing to learn and also teach new things :)
