A polite lad with sarcastic humor, who loves story-telling, and other social interactions. That's me in a nutshell! :D
But for the sake of some details: as far as I may judge myself, I'm a tolerant and most patient guy. I love having chit-chat with others, friends and strangers alike. The topic may vary from small talk to deep philosophy or (what is my personal favorite) culture or science!
I like a lot of things, but I'm going to put those down in the interests' doobly doo.
Except one thing. That is coffee. Coffee deserves to be mentioned several times! :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Some time ago I've had enough of the worlds cruel clockwork, and decided to go on a journey alone. So I've packed my rucksack and head' to the highway.
It turned out to be a 2 and a half months long hitchhiker trip through Europe. Been to Austria, the Czech Republic, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Finland and Sweden. It was such a great experience, that I'm certainly going to repeat it, although not the same route. Perhaps, next time I'll go to the west, to check on Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxemburg... etc. There're so many thing I haven't seen! :D Or maybe I''ll goo far east, to learn about new cultures. Who knows!?

Interests

Oh, I have a lot of interests. ^^
I highly appreciate knowledge of all kind. Therefor if someone knows something I don't and shows it to me, then I'm amazed like a child who's just seen some real magic. :D
I love music, and instruments, computers and software, travelling and culture. And people! They are sooo fascinating! Everyone has a unique personality (well most of them at least), which means they have their own world of perception. And that's simply amazing! :D So many things to tell, to hear, to learn.
But to makeshift list, here you go:
Listening to music, singing, hiking, sight seeing, chatting, cooking, eating, biking, jogging, fencing, travelling, learning, reading, watching movies, playing, laughing, drinking, smoking shisha, skiing, skating, woodcarving, crafting...
And what makes me live: COFFEE :D

Music, Movies, and Books

Picking out favorites is not my style. It's like picking one from your best friends, saying "this is my favorite one". :P
Once again a small list or something. Just to write something.
Music: All... except techno and rap. Sorry... no offence! :D
Movies: That's a hard one... Almost every tales and fairy tales. I don't like Disney movies 'though. But I would watch "The Secrets of Kells" and "Howl's moving castle" or "Cihiro" over and over again! And there is "Baraka" and "Samsara"... I love them! And the "Tenacious D" :D And the "Europa Report" and "Big Bang Theory" and what not?! :D
Books: Let's just say that I love sci-fi and a bit of fantasy books. That wraps it up! ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Aww... just one?! :D Nope, it is another hard nut. An amazing thing... well for one I managed to stay sane in this world.
But if the task is to tell about a thing that is amazing for me, then:
I participated in an amazing project called the Living Library, for that I've visited two countries (beside my home) met with some really fantastic people, made friendships and in the end organized an event at my university in the name of tolerance, spreading the words of cultural, religious, gender and racial equality... and it was a blast! :D
(and I can make an amazing coffee... hwow, mind blowing!)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm open for everything that is new and fun! :D And can be learnt... and doesn't hurt...much! :D
As I am a musical instrument maker, I know things and stuff about instruments, wood crafting and varnish. I've also learnt how to wield a 15th century one and a half handed long sword. Also know archery. And fire juggling. And music. And I know how to play chess :P
About sharing... I'm okay to share whatever I have, although privacy is pretty important for me, thus I'm also very keen on not to cross the line. Being friendly and tolerant... but with a big deal of empathy! ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Whatever I have with me! :D
That's usually fun and stories. A lots of good stories! :D If I have some food or drink, that's also in the common basket.
I'm not the kind who loves giving and receiving gifts. Time is what we share, and that's something cannot be outdone! ;)
