About Me

No need to label myself more due to excessive information I present in other sections. You may ask whatever you are wondering about me directly.

PS: I'm excited to discover what lies beyond stones, clubs, or squares!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This application is truly exceptional in two distinct ways. Firstly, it fosters an environment where I can connect with individuals of diverse beliefs, cultures, and languages. Secondly, it does so at an incredibly affordable cost, catering to my wanderlust and passion for exploration. I genuinely believe that this platform has the potential to dismantle the barriers that people have carried for many years when it comes to embracing differences of all kinds.

Interests

I like to participate hiking events with local groups. Spending my time in the nature fascinates me deeply. I was a member of local bicycle clubs in the pandemic, we were organizing long tours (80-120 km). Since then I am still trying to reach my potential while my passion drowns in my working schedule.

Music, Movies, and Books

I admire the culture of hip-hop and in addition, I enjoy listening to techno music (although I'm not quite sure whether it falls under ethno, funk, dark, or gothic techno – it simply fuels my passion for raving). Moreover, I have a penchant for reading books that delve into history, science fiction, and biographies of intriguing individuals.

Teach, Learn, Share

The concept of saying, "I can teach..." felt a bit too assertive for me. While it's not meant to be egotistical, I believe it's challenging to determine what I can offer to someone's skillset until I get to know them better. However, I'm quite eager to learn various things, such as:

If you're a vegan, I'd be interested in experimenting with a recipe together.
If you're a percussionist, I'd love to explore different techniques and rhythms.
Depending on the topic, I might possess unconventional knowledge that stems from a blend of diverse perspectives. I tend to integrate my viewpoints on a subject with a multitude of sub-ideas from various backgrounds, which can sometimes make me seem rather weird :P

What I Can Share with Hosts

I truly believe that sincerity, kindness, and respect are the cornerstones of meaningful connections. When we engage with people from different walks of life, these qualities become even more important. They help us appreciate diverse perspectives and grow together.

Sincerity lets us build genuine relationships, while kindness and respect guide us in understanding others experiences. In a world filled with differences these qualities bring us closer, creating a shared sense of humanity.
