About Me

I like learning foreign languages, either to use in my travels, work, or to get to meet more people. As the great Nelson Mandela put it, people will like you more if you speak to them in their language rather than your own. :) Mainly concentrated on Slavic languages at the moment.

I also like eating at ethnic restaurants, walking in the park or going to the beach. I also write a blog on my experiences on language learning, called The Multilingual Bronxite. Feel free to Google it, and my Wordpress blog should come up. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Appear on foreign television. Twice. Once on Bulgarian TV and the second one in Canada.

Did some rock climbing in Mykonos, barefoot. Did they hurt afterward...
