About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

i want my life to be as interesting as possible. it doesnt mean i have to travell all the time. for example reading books is one of my favourite hobbies, the only thing i need to do is open my eyes...and hey this is what im doing fot the last few years since i left the army. so i travelled moved from different places and now i am gladly opening my eyes in Hong-Kong.

PHILOSOPHY

when everything is going wrong you just earned another exprience....

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

there is a smart chinese saying: sharing is caring. just kidding i would like to help other travellers as other couch hosters and other nice people helped me around my trip in the world. it is not about the cost of the sleeping place its all about getting to know a place from a different angle, a local one....

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

my main couchsurf exprience was in keifang, china. there i met a great israeli guy that if it wasnt for couchsurf i would never come to this place at all. the name just popped in one of my couchsurf searches. i was sure he have a palace in this town but when i showed up he saw the loziuest room with no shower air con and a decent toilet he rents on second floor of a local pub. but hey, i ended up staying one month (which in most of it he was gone) in this amazing place, i learned about real china and real chinese everyday life and even ended as a waiter in the pub!
thank you or, thank you couchsurfing!
