Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Travelling and hosting... :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I had a lot of Couchsurfing experiences: mainly positives (meeting very impressive personalities, having very good friends through CS from the whole wide world!; experiencing with CS such destinations on my own, which are not so well-known to have a lot of official tourism organised there, having unforgettable moments), sometimes negatives (my laptop was stolen when I Couchsurfed at a Couchsurfer in Czech Republic; some CS-ers wrote negative comments on me without any reason; etc.)...
Interests
astrology, philately, travelling, writing articles on special topics, like ethnic minorities, autonomy, wine-tourism, culture, disabilities (specially hearing problems)...
I love to make interviews with famous artists, politicians, interesting personalities! To be a journalist is a really good profession and passion in one! ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I always feel an incredibly deep proudness, if I get to such beautiful places, whatabout the most of the people never hears, or never travels to: Faroe Islands, Malbun (Liechtenstein), Minsk (Belarus), Kukkolaforsen @ Haparanda - Tornio (Sweden - Finland), Eichenberg (Austria), Tiraspol (Moldova / Transnistria) etc.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love to show around my beloved places also for my Couchsurfers, showing special places, which are not so hyped touristic highlights, but much more interesting, as the biggest tourist - magnets!
Also as journalist, specialized on travel and cultural topics, I prefer to write about such destinations, which are not so well-known, but really special and worth to visit...
