I am an avid learner and a pleasant person to converse with. There are certain things I dislike (like alcohol and tobacco), but I respect other people opinions. Apart from that, I try to perceive the life and people around me to their fullest. I'm honest, innately kind and generous, and I've not yet came to regret it. Last, but not least, I always respect both formal and informal rules of social groups around me, as well as the laws of hospitality. Certainly, I have my share of drawbacks, but each day I strive to be a better person than I was the day before.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I will travel a lot in the near future, and I'd like to make each of my trips a bit adventurous and a lot more fulfilling. I find communication with the people of another culture to be an interesting, rewarding and very important part of any journey. Also, I firmly believe that customs and lifestyle of each country you visit should not be dissected into sterile components and observed from aside - rather, you should enjoy them firsthand, blend into the place's natural way of life, if only for a day or two. As a newcomer, you may also derive fascinating experiences from what locals believe to be mundane. Therefore, this way of travelling appeals to me greatly.
