I am visual artist from Slovakia, Bratislava. My focus is in photography and architecture of 20th century. I am really water lover, I jump to all kind of waters, from mineral hot springs, rivers, lakes, to oceans. I like traveling a lot, I prefer strolling in common local places no touristic sightseeing. I always try to find local markets with local food, wine and people. When I travel I try to understand the country and people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to explore countries and cities with local people, I am not interesting in tourist attraction and sightseeing, but in everyday life of the place.

Currently, because of my living condition, I am unfortunatelly not able to accept guests.
