Overview
About Me
I'm studying for my bachelors in philosophy and i'll soon be living in Prague because of the Erasmus exchange program. I've had some experience with couchsurfers as my sister Mara used to be a active surfer and host (so although i am new in this website, i have helped my sister with some hosting).
I like different kinds of cultures and would love to meet different kinds of people.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
My main objective for being here is to find a place to stay in Prague (for few days) until I find a place to stay. If in future it will be possible, then i would love to host some people from different parts of the world

Music, Movies, and Books
I love different kinds of music. If the day is nice, then i'll probably listen to some jazz, ska, classical music or some psychedelic rock or something else. If i'm a little gloomy (There might be moments when I look depressed, but i'm actually just thinking (haha) i'll listen to some punk rock, hardcore (or some metal), blues or something of the sorts. I believe that a sad song can make a gloomy day better (upbeat music, of course, can be nice too, but this can be a nice conversation piece :) )
I like different kinds of dramas as well as other types of genres.
The top movie I have seen in the last year was ''Synecdoche, New York'' (I highly recommend it).
As i'm studying philosophy most of the books are related to philosophy, but if i have free time I like to read a little bit of Dostoyevsky or something of that sort. (Although I can't say I have read a lot of books, but i would love to hear some recommendations If your my host or surfer). I would probably say that my favorite book is Dostoyevsky's ''Idiot'' (A magnificent book).
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've had my time as a punk (which was one of the most interesting parts of my life). Also, I used to do rock climbing.
I don't really know if it counts as amazing, but one thing that comes to mind as i write this is the time where me and my brother saved 11 little kittens (from the street) from getting infected eyes and found them new homes. (I hope this doesn't sound as bragging (haha))
Teach, Learn, Share
I have some knowledge on philosophy, I can cook (If people aren't lying) and teach you how to cook (mostly spicy dishes)
