I'm an outsider, silly, kind and open - hearted, I sometimes ask strangers random questions, socially confused & clumsy but not shy, strong willed, very optimistic but easily overloaded with melancholic tendencies and a little bit crazy in both, good and bad ways. I always do what I want, trying to make my life journey as much meaningful as I can, which means that I'm in a process of constant change and don't like to stay in one place for too long (literally & non - literally). I'm very introspective, an observer who watches myself and others, analyzes patterns. Challenging myself is what I mostly do for some time and I hope it will stay that way.

Not spiritual in a common meaning. I do not believe in angels, higher intelligence or other conscious beings that I cannot see, however I am still searching for the best way that could describe that inner path I follow. I do believe in a power of human mind so I'm taking a good care of mine. I think we are here for each other, I believe in love, kindness and connection between people & nature.

I love animals and don't eat them. I love people so I don't eat them either (metaphorically this time). My missions on this planet are: to help and inspire others & to write.

I don't do small talk but really enjoy talking about things that matter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Some time ago I would never call myself a social animal. Well, despite everything - I am! I see building connections with people from all over the world as extremely exciting and necessary (at least on this stage) part of life. People, their stories and struggles inspire me and help me to grow.

I don't have a space to share at the moment but I'm happy to meet up for coffee or drink and walk you around Bristol!

Also, I recently realized that I don't want to stay in Europe. It will take me some time to figure out a future plan but in a meantime I will look forward to travel more so it would be great to share some experience with those who live locally.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really, really love music but I'm very picky. I'm not good at genres but I'm usually most attracted to deeper, complex stuff with a hint of darkness, however pretentious it sounds. It can be anything - from folk, post - rock to electro - if it's melancholic and/or heavy (and not boring at the same time!) I'll probably like it ;)

Movies - recently I watch more series to be honest. I don't make lists of such things because it takes too much time and I hardly remember titles.

I used to read a lot when I was younger, now it's usually hard for me to focus on a book, unless it's a good fantasy so I read mostly that or articles.. Hoping to change that!
