About Me

Numbers or letters?
I go for feelings :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Life is an experiment, so why not meeting new people, talking about things that matter for us, and learning new things from each other.

Interests

I am in a long term relationship with photography. Can't wait to get into a new stage though -- marriage -- I mean career, another type of committed relationships :D. My focus is mostly documentaries, both in still and moving images. I paint in watercolors for fun. Back in the days, I used to play piano. Nowadays I am discovering new world of strum instruments: got myself a long-waited present -- ukulele.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music in general. Though there are some styles I have more preference for, such as jazz, rock'n'roll, classical music, rock, alternative/indie, post rock, bluegrass, (electro)swing, bossa nova, folk music. Quite diverse, and choices are always based on my mood. .
I enjoy movies as well as books that have an "after feeling."
My favorite books are written by Tolstoy, Remarque, Chekhov, Orwell, Conan Doyle.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed the ancient city of Petra in hot weather with backpack full of photography equipment, water bottles and food. I still don't know how I managed that, but it was a great feeling to be on the top of one of the highest locations of Petra and see in the end of the day how sun went down. It was incredible.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will be happy to tell about my beautiful culture, places I have been to, and things I know. In general, I believe, there are a lot of things people can talk about and feel related. Besides, I will try to bring more positiveness, good mood and any kind of help, if needed.
