Overview
About Me
My friends always say about me that I am very calm person. It is true that I am not in hurry and time is very relative for me. I agree with slovak saying - that if you can solve the problem, there is no need to worry. If you can not then it is pointless to worry about it.
PHILOSOPHY
I would like to follow two wisest quotes in my life - "You in others - this is your soul." (B. Pasternak - Doctor Zhivago) and "The happiest people do not have the best of everything. They make the best of everything they have."
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I want to meet people from different parts of Earth, change thoughts with them. I believe that it can create better world if we learn how to listen and accept different views.
After all we still can not understand to words like - equality and tolerance. Lot of people from my home country are full of prejudices. I hope that my travels, experiences, photos and talks will help them to change their minds. What really matters is the soul of every human, not his/her religion, nationality, color of skin or sexual orientation.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Once, I was walking back to my home and I saw probably the most magnificient sunset ever. At that time I was living in Slovakia, which doesn't have a sea, but in that moment sun shines changed somehow two hills and valley to seaport and one cloud looked like old sailing boat, everything was gold and red. I wanted to sit in middle of road forever.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you how to chain armour is produced :) And show you some tricks with which you can impress your friends (they are based on simple physical principles). Of course, if you are curious about slovak cuisine, I can cook something.
