It´s been two years since I last used couchsurfing when travelling the US. Now finally travelling again till I have no money left. I have some days when I´m antisocial but most of the days when travelling I´m trying to get the most of it so I automatically swicht to being super-social:) I don´t like going to the same place twice as there is always so much new to see. I love photography but it´s been quite some time since I last took pictures for free. Now is the chance to do it again just for fun and take my camera as a partner on my trips. Apart from travelling, nature and being in places where I don´t understand a word I like clubs, new friends, all kinds of music and some good food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I´ve been on couchsurfing since 2001, but never used it much. It changed two years ago when travelling the US, not only needed I crash on the couch sometimes but also meeting some great people who showed me around and had great fun together.

I got this little plan now... I´m a photographer (mostly weddings during summer) and one day (hopefully soon) I´ll be trying as hard as I can to become destination photographer. For that I need destinations first and some cool couples second. I can barter my photography with your couch for a while and it would feel just right to somehow repay you your hospitality with photography (products, portraits, family, couple) whatever makes you happy. You can chech my couple photo sessions on instagram @mareksybalphoto , or my website mareksybal.com

What´s my aim in your town? Find couples to be photographed, find amazing places, take pictures and have some new experiences from abroad.
