About Me

I live alone in my own two-bedroom apartment in a nice area close to city center (20 minutes walk or 8 minutes by tram). Second bedroom is now a storage place, so you would sleep on a comfortable sofa in the living room. I love travelling, art, history, photography, cultural events, exploring abandoned places, looking for new experiences and meeting new people, observing animals and life in general. I love to philosophize with a glass of good wine in nice cozy places. Most of the time now I work as a real estate agent and partly I work as a professional tourist guide for Bratislava. If I have time I will show you the best places in Bratislava to see, eat, drink and have fun :) . I can offer comfortable couch in my living room, where you can admire my collection of art glass vases and some other antique stuff. I admire old stuff, mostly pieces of art. My work time is flexible so I am many times available in working hours.
I look and feel much younger than my actual age :)
If you would stay my place, please respect, that I am very eco friendly person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet wonderful people from different cultures, make new friends, to have possibility to experience real life of natives around the world. To practice languages. To exchange experience and stories from travelling around the globe. I like to show best of my country to fellow travelers. To get first hand information about real life from countries not much mentioned in mass-medias.
