About Me

The most important thing for us is freedom! Therefore, we travel the world. We love hitchhiking. We love to learn new things. We love learning new skills. We like to communicate with interesting people. And we know that our thoughts make our reality!
We traveled by car to Finland. Then we hitchhiked through Bulgaria, Macedonia, Albania, Montenegro, Serbia, Turkey, Georgia, Armenia and the Russian Federation. Then we went to India for 5.5 months. Then hitchhiking again through Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, China, Kazakhstan, Russian Federation, Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova, Romania and Bulgaria. And again for India (5.5 months) and the Himalayas))) Then we again have a trip to Turkey, Bulgaria, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia.
We traveled to South America for 8 months. We have been to Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia and Bolivia. When we returned we stayed in Morocco for 7 days and visited Casablanca, Marrakech and Rabat.
We toured Europe last year.
For 5.5 years of our big trip we covered about 180,000 km of hitchhiking and 20,000 km on trains in India)))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My husband and I travel around the world. When we come to visit family through couchsurfing, we will know the real mentality and culture of people. And it is very interesting!!!!!!!

Interests

We have read many books about spiritual development. But we agree with Krishnamurti: "truth is a country without roads; man cannot come to it through the organization, beliefs, dogma (religious or ritual), philosophical knowledge or psychological technique. He must find it through the mirror of relationship, through understanding the contents of your own mind, observation and intellectual analysis or introspection".
We want to stop the inner dialogue and quiet the mind. Hope to meet a lot of people who practiced the life in Ashrams, Vipassana, yoga and meditation. Asia and South America has given us the answers to many questions.
We are very interested in Hinduism, Buddhism and Sikhism.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
