I'm unconventional in many ways; don't have a car, I cycle instead; don't have smartphone, use a laptop; didn't have a pushchair and carried my son in a sling even while cycling; breastfed my son for over 4 years; try to lead an eco-friendly life, didn't even use nappies with my son. We home educate our 7-year old son, and expose him to the diversity of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot with my home-educated son; it's part of his education. Last autumn was in Sahara desert, while winter time was deep in snow in the Carpathian mountains. What an efficient way to learn from life.

Interests

My main interests are nature and connecting with a wide variety of people. Also, a love home educating my son.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a bookworm and read lots of non-fiction books. Some of my top favourite books is Teach Your Own by John Holt; How Not to Die by Dr Greger; Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler; A Goog Life by Leo Hickman, and the list could continue. With our son, we read lots too, and he's into graphic novels at the moment, like the Avatar series, or Hilo books.

I listen to World Music: Zaz - Je veux; Romanovski & Philips; Faudel; Amedeo Minghi, Lewis Garland & The Kett Rebellion, and the list could continue.

World Movies: Kinky Boots, Burlesque, Arriety, Miss Potter, Le fate ignoranti, Kinsey, The Boat that Rocked, and the list could continue.
