About Me

Since I started to dance tango it became a very strong passion and addiction, so at the moment wherever I go, I try to find some tango events and milongas.
I learn also oriental dance and generally at the moment the biggest part fo my time I give to dancing and learning new things and techniques about it.

My life path is yoga and I am blessed to be a yoga teacher, always happy to share this powerful knowledge and techniques with others.

I eat mostly only raw food, so you will find a lot of fruits at my place for sure.

Before I started to dance I spent two years wandering around Asia by hitch-hiking, cycling and walking.

I give the same importance and I value on the same way my experiences of being joyfull, warm, safe, hungry, cold, of feeling anger or love, of being scared and tired, of being hosted by random local people and of feeling sometimes deeply lonely and lost, usually to feel reliefed afterwards.

I'm somewhere between spiritual and very sensual perception and way of experiencing the world, somewhere between desire of calmness and harmony and cravings for strong sensations.
On some way I'm collecting inside of me all possible emotions that I can experience and observe. Being on the road brings it usually in very intesified form, but belive me: tango as well.

Sometimes I have an impression that I need to laugh, to cry, to dance and to shout to become then really purified and able to stay in peace and harmony that is built on an awerness born from real experience.

You can find my travels and projects here, usually there is also an English version below:

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Thanks to this website I met many people who have inspired me to follow my dream. Every person I hosted, surfed or just met gave me something precious and sometimes very new perspectives.
It's nice that so many people have so much trust and sympathy for strangers.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like the most sounds that are dark, deep and not too fast, I love also all kind of folk and traditional music.
The particular artists whose music touches me the most are musiciens from Dead Can Dance.

Books: Vladimir Nabokov, Jerzy Kosinski, Gustav Meyrink, Michail Bulhakov, Baudleaire, Bruno Schulz, Nietzsche, Dostoyevski, Lorca, Kafka...
And I absolutely love Alice in Wonderland.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sometimes I realize I can be a lotus flower.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you want to know something about tango I would be very happy to share whatever I am able to.
If you dance any kind of the dance- I would very happy to exchange experience with you.

If you need some tips about long term, low budget wild travelling, I am happy to share what I learnt.

I can also share and exchange my knowledge about yoga and meditation.
