Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Lay back and hang out with travelers visiting Prague.
ABOUT ME
Hi there, I've heard a lot about this project and thought I would find some like-minded travelers. I like to have an authentic experience in a city, so anytime I am free, I am willing to show off my city. Inversely I will never turn down a chance to see your favorite city spot you recommend.
I've studied political science in school but found a way to have many professions in life from being a chef to teacher to what I do now being an IT specialist. As most people I am here for a cultural experience and at times, I'm just happy to help anyone needing a place to stay.
Si tu me parles en français = points de bonus!
PHILOSOPHY
My philosophy on life is to accumulate as much experience as possible for self-actualization and ultimately, happiness. I enjoy people that are somewhat of a Renaissance men/women.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I think Couchsurfing concept is the way to go when it comes to our progressive nature. I feel like there are enough virtual outlets to get hooked on in the world, so an earnest travel, cultural exchange and a good conversation is something that's becoming less and less common - for this reason I think this project is rejuvenating something that i believe is important to preserve.
Also, fuck hotels, they are depressing, I'd rather sleep in my car.
Interests
I have a lot of interests, some of which are: Soccer, Boxing, Cooking, Reading, Movies, Drawing, Art Museums.
Music, Movies, and Books
I love Michelangelo Antonioni, Wes Anderson, Jean-Luc Goddard, Roman Polanski, Mike Mills and many more directors. Beginners, Repulsion, Pierot le Fou are among my favorite films.
Music - Fleet Foxes, The XX, Thievery Coorporation, Beirut, Tame Impala, Spring Standards, Yeasayer, Angus and Julia Stone, Portugal the Man, Bonobo, Little People, Tycho, Alt-J and many more.
