About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn how
to step into the fire and stay there for a while.

ABOUT ME

Curious, spontaneous dreamer. I believe in elves and ancient myths. In permanent conflict (or symbiosis?) between my Apollonian and Dionysian nature.

PHILOSOPHY

suffering exists but there is no one to blame, everything is connected and everything passes away.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My home is your home.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing boat in Amsterdam, little house in mountains in Romania, night with six couchsurfers on the 7m2 floor in Lubljana student dormitory, sleeping in a austrian cave with couchsurfing friends, creating international band in Stockholm, sharing my flat with 10 polish guys, getting lost in polish villages, getting loud in Vilnius streets with foreign travellers and warm evenings with spicy tea. I could tell many other memorable stories about my couchsurfing experience but hope everything is still ahead.
