I'm an extrovert techie, spent most of my adult life in building, killing or growing startups! I'm now starting a new one, while I'm running training programs for other programmers. I'm into exploring cities, mountains, I love the beach, and deep conversations. I'm a sucker for swing dancing and physical challenges, especially calisthenics! Instagram: @marsty5

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
As a traveler, I'm looking for hosts who want to share experiences in their city! You may even get excited about your city through my lenses of a first-timer! As a host, I'm quite reserved. My place is quite precious for me; Order and safety is number one in my priorities. I live outside the capital city of Nicosia, but I'm close to the main highway that takes you to any other city. If you stay with me, I recommend having a car to travel (or lean on our unpredictable public transport). I'm usually quite busy with my work and hobbies, so I only host short-term stays. I will try to be available at least one evening to hang out. :D
Music, Movies, and Books
I'm not big on watching movies, I'm mostly watching tv series when I want to switch off. Movies I cannot forget: Diarios de motocicleta, A Beautiful Mind Music that remains a fave: El Canto De Loco, Maná, Jason Mraz, Snow Patrol, The Cardigans, The Cranberries, Dido Books I've loved: The Artist's Way, How to make friends and influence people
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Skydiving in the Alp close to Barcelona - I probably lost a few years of my life, ha
Teach, Learn, Share
I can share - tips on how to test a new idea in the market quickly - how to dance lindy hop - how to process feelings - how to kill plants (apparently I'm really good at it) - travels - how to navigate cyprus The only requirement is that you're up to sharing your own experiences too!
What I Can Share With Hosts
I'm super flexible depending on the host's availability. I can make myself busy the whole day or spend time together to get the real local experience :) I'm a good listener and you might find yourself reflecting through our conversations. I can also get super excited and I've been told it's contagious!
My Interests
I dance, I sing. I run, I swim. I write and I kick! I love many many forms of expression, and I'm always curious to try something new :)
