About Me

CURRENT MISSION

the best way of education is travelling

ABOUT ME

what can i say? let me think. my friends would say that i'm a responsible, honest and outgoing at the same time. I think that stydying at uni is about three things: homework, fun and sleep ...but you can only choose two. usually i prefer the first two things.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that life is not about being rich or famous but being happy. Every single person has his/her own way of happiness. Nothing can be more excilirating than being yourself. Each person is a story. It's important to extract it from him/her in order to give this story a chance to glitter brighter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm living in shared appartment, not sure if it'll be ok for you, but anyway i will try to help as i can: hanging out, piece of advice, maybe some contact information.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've never used CouchSurfing but find it exciting. Would like to try new opprtunities of travelling. Always stayed in hotels, it was ok but not really "alive". I mean, to expand your knowledge about a country you should communicate more with locals with their traditions and habits, but not with fake-smile-hostess at the hotel's reception.
