Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people from different places.

Interests

Most of my time is consumed by my work, but apart from that I used to hang around with my friends, visit my family, watch movies, play board games and discuss everything. And I mean: EVERYTHING. When alone I read, write, enjoy to the music and watch my favourite TV series.

Music, Movies, and Books

My top 5 movies: "Fight Club" by Fincher, "Pink Floyd - The Wall", "In the mood for love" by Wong Kar-Wai, "Requiem for a dream" by Aronofsky, "Apocalypse Now".

My favourite TV Series: "The Young Pope", "Rick and Morty", "Black Mirror", "Family Guy", "Utopia", "IT Crowd" (forever)

It's too hard to create similar list for books. I was a big fan of Cortazar, Eco, Calvino, Marquez, but also by Woody Allen, Kurt Vonnegut, J.R.R. Tolkien and Frank Herbert. My latest revelations: Chuck Palahniuk, Malcolm Gladwell and Atul Gawande.

Music? I just check my playlist on the smartphone: Willy Mason, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Eddie Vedder, Tracy Chapman, Peter Gabriel, Johnny Cash, Florence & The Machine, Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin, OK Go, Wildstyle.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. I visited west part of Germany, all the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxemburg once. Travelling by bike and sleeping in a tent I spent less than 500 euros during 40 days trip. Best days of my life :)
2. I've translated a book from English more than a year before I've read the first book in Shakespear's language. It was published and got good reviews!
3. The biggest group of my friends collects people from the elementary school. We are close for 35 years.

Teach, Learn, Share
