I usually travel & host people with my girlfriend Martina. You can check her profile as well: https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/martina.novotova

Hey there :). I'm just a regular guy. My home country is Slovakia 🇸🇰. I used to do sports a lot some years ago. Mainly rowing & cycling. Now I run a zero waste shop with Martina in Trenčín. It's called BEZOBALiS and you can check it out on Facebook and Instagram 🙂. I take any opportunity to hang out with friends, go to the nature, travel and meet new interesting people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started using CS on my travels in Iran. I found out, that it is an awesome tool to make new friends, learn stuff about country that you can not read in any book and generally getting more close to locals.

Long story short:

When surfing - best way possible to get to know the country I'm currently in.

When hosting - even when I'm not able to travel my self, I allow the world to come into my place.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
I listen to various types of music but generally I like rock music the most.

Movies:
I'm a lot into movies. I try to avoid Hollywood blockbusters. I rather watch movies that make me think, have interesting point or deep message.

Books:
Regarding the books I like Scandinavian thrillers very much. Lately I'm also pretty interested in Jung's psychology / philosophy and books that dive deep into topic of self-knowledge.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's not a one time thing but continuous activity. I would not even call it "amazing". Nevertheless still very important. Treating people, like I want to be treated.

Teach, Learn, Share

Simply go between people, observe, ask many questions and maintain conversation. Do this all the time and you're on the best way to put together big picture from small puzzle pieces.
