Overview
About Me
I am a person who found his home in the mountains. After a long journey and a major turning point in my life, I decided to follow the call of the peaks professionally. Currently, I am on my way to becoming a certified mountain hiking guide (UIMLA).
Last year, I completed a 400 km solo trek through the Carpathians - 100 km of which was through pathless, wild terrain. This experience taught me silence, resilience, and how to read the language of nature. Now, I am exploring the Alps, step by step, and preparing for my professional training
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm looking for more than just a place to sleep. I value authentic stories and people who share a passion for nature, mountains, or meaningful conversations. Since I often travel towards the Alps for my training tours, I'd love to meet locals who know the 'soul' of their region
Interests
Mountain hiking & Alpinism (obviously!), Chess (love a good tactical game), Juggling (it keeps my mind sharp), and debating. I've recently started participating in German- speaking debate clubs to polish my language skills.
Music, Movies, and Books
metal music forever
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've hiked 500 km through the mountains
Teach, Learn, Share
Everything
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'm not just looking for a couch; I'm looking for meaningful connections. I can share plenty of stories from my 400 km solo journey through the wild Carpathians and my transition to life in the Alps.
Beyond the mountains, I
can offer a great game of chess, teach you the basics of juggling, or simply be a good listener and a fun companion for the evening. I believe that every stay is a chance to build a real friendship, and I'm always open to meeting people who see life as an adventure
