About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Getting fluent in Japanese and deciding on a future course of my life

ABOUT ME

"Serious" and "calm" - two words that would probably descriibe me best, especially for the person who don't know me too well. Still, my friends know that depending on the mood I can be a quite social and easygoing person, who can pull off a joke or two.

PHILOSOPHY

Going your own way is what matters. My way of thinking, of grasping this world if you will can not be easily influenced by the outside world.
There is no god and there ain't no devil - we live only once and we should try spending this life to the fullest so when we leave this world we have no regrets.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Telling my friends about this awesome opportunity to meet new people that couchsurfing provides and of course using it myself.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Totally positive so far! Don't have that much experience yet but this summer I was staying in Finland through couchsurfing for a few days and it was awesome!

Interests

First and foremost it would be Japanese culture. I like watching anime, I also study Japanese language as a hobby and one of my favourite writers is Haruki Murakami.
Apart from that I enjoy cycling, reading books, playing computer games and doing different spontaneous things without planning beforehand.

Music, Movies, and Books

Avantasia, Dark Tranquillity, Metallica - if the name of one of these bands isn't an empty word to you, then we are sure to have a common topic to discuss! Lately got quite addicted to Sabaton, Kamelot and Stratovarius.
Talking about books I prefer the ones that hold a deeper sense to them and particularly like the novels of Haruki Murakami. On a lighter topics i'm a big fan of China Mieville and Guy Gavriel Kay.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Organised and participated in traveling around Iceland in 7 days.
