I'm Miro and I love to travel, to create and to get to know new people and their stories!

At the moment I'm travelling East Asia. I got in a plane on the 15th December of 2016 to fly from Düsseldorf (Germany) to Hong Kong, spend 3 weeks there, then got to Seoul to live here for 2 months and will fly to Tokyo on the 5th March to finish my travelling.
I use this trip to work on my photography and videography to build up a portfolio to make my passion pay my rent one day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really like the idea of meeting new people in the way Couchsurfing makes it possible. Understanding living is a really important factor of understanding culture, so it's a great way not only to get to know new people but also to get to know culture from a point of view you wouldn't have experienced in another way.

Interests

I can get interested in almost anything! But I think I might try to give a short overview what I'm most passionate about at the moment. I'm writing a blog, making photography and taking videos, thinking, reading and writing much about philosophy recently. As soon is I'm back home and get my hands on my instruments and recording gear, I'll also do some more music again!
So these are my interests at the moment. Probably I could name tons of other stuff, but that was just some concrete stuff that you can get a first impression about my interests.
