My name is Miska and I suffer from adventure-fever which means I can't stay in one place for too long because I feel like I'm loosing my mind. I need to be on the move looking for new places, new faces, new customs, as well as new sights, smells and tastes. I like to discuss big things, philosophy and politics as well as laugh out of absurdities of everyday life. I like to listen even more than to talk. From time to time I disappear in remote mountainous areas to admire solitude in my little tent only to find myself craving for parties and conversations with friends when I'm back.

"I travelled the world
Looking for understanding
Of the times that we live in
Hunting and gathering first hand information
Challenging definitions of sin"
(wonderlust king by gogol bordello)

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Because traveling is first and foremost about meeting people, only through others, can you learn about yourself.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I listen to various types of music, always finding something new . Although I will always listen to Bjork, Herbie Hankock, Gorillaz, O.S.T.R. and Maria Peszek.

I really enjoy watching documentaries as well as films from Kusturica, Almodovar and Jarmusch.

I love to read and it's difficult to really outline my interests. Among my favourite books are Slaughterhouse number five, The unbearable lightness of being and Catch 22.
