About Me

Hi! We are a married couple, fascinated by travelling, discovering the world, new cultures and places, adore learning more about people, their customs and traditions.
Being successful in our professional life ( I, as a founder and owner of business in water treatment, and my wife, as a corporate lawyer and a legal adviser to the the multinational company) we, nevertheless, pretty soon have found out that we did not want to lose our lifetime being seized in the offices from 9 a.m. till 6 p.m. and do want to enjoy the fullness of existence. Started from travelling every free weekend to the neighbour countries and every few months to the other continents, in a couple of years we assured that we could not be bounded by the frontiers of the only country and could easily arrange all our lives and business process from any of the globes' point by i-net. Since that time we live everywhere and travel when and where we like :)
Sometimes we travel separated (normally, in business) but mostly we travel together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

You can ask why don't we stay at hotels, why do we want to share a space with some strangers? The reply is very simple. Because the best way to discover a new country is to meet with the people who live there! This is the best experience! Sometimes you will never be aware of the most interesting places but from the locals. No touristic guides, only the recommendations of the people and spontaneity! This is our motto.
That is also the answer why we are ready to open the door of our home to the guests. Because we are easy-going persons and really love to communicate with a new people and , of course, to help everybody with discovering our own country and culture!
