ABOUT ME
I have been living abroad in Spain and Budapest for several years and have accommodated english as my second mothertongue. My favourite kind of people are the ones full of surprises and my favourite kind of moments are simple ones with small special details. When i look at the sky it usually makes me reflect back on my tiny insignificant life and wonder about the giant and really special things that are possible to achieve. Ironically coming to my counciousness hopefully before all stars have fallen down which would be nothing more than astonishingly mesmerising beauty slipping through my palms like desert sands in the wind.
I have been teaching english in Latvia, Spain and Hungary and this work has been more then money making profession as it is possible to meet a whole bunch of different people and live abroas with a job that gives value to both teacher and student.
Second but not less important is my 10 years long entertainer career with basketballs as i have performed tricks for audiances in many places and occasions.
PHILOSOPHY
Can a dog achieve the state of Buda? Muuuuuuu

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have been couchsurfing in some places in Europe but i feel like the best is still to come
Interests
My broad spectrum of cool things to do on my bucketlist can be put under the microscope lense and extrapolated into a warm sunday evening at the riverside gazing through the stilness at the reflection of water and witnessing all the beautiful games the colors play.
I like to read books regarding to philosophy like the dialogues of Plato or Nietzsche.
Basketball is always close to my heart.
I believe my ear can be quite receptive for harmonical sounds produced by any genre of music but hip hop is my addictive flavour of choice following soft raindrops of reggea.
I like learning and looking back at our history and have long conversations with people about anything but mainstream things.
