ABOUT ME

Want to find out about us? Read this and you'll know!

You can expect to live up more than 80 years old. How are you going to use all that time?

Let me put it this way:

One Hare Krishna monk once stopped us on a street and started to ask us how's life in general, had we ever thought about the questions of eternity? We replied that actually yes, that your questions puzzle us too and that we think it's a quest for a lifetime...for us and for you too.

The young monk looked baffled. He didn't quite expect such an answer. We felt that there was a sense of underestimation on his behalf. Then he started to ask us about our love life - I don't mean anything intimate - but about love itself, that was it something to die for? As you might know, those guys live in strict ascetism, so it could be quite safe to assume that he did not know much about it, except on a metaphysical level.

After we had talked about love for a while, the monk looked down, sighed deeply and looked up again, now with seemingly melancholic eyes. He said:

"You two have been together for so many years...I just wonder...has it really been fun?"

We replied, "We've got to say that yes, yes and yes"

Monk stood there, sighing again, saying:

"Yes, I can really see that...you know..."

Despite all his inner mental struggle, his religious contend he was disarmed by something he didn't allow for himself.

You know what that is :-)

Let's share that together, shall we?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

If I would be a dog I would

1) Feel all the odors of the world in my nostrils

2) Wag my tail for everybody

Even tough I'm more like a monkey...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have hosted now already few times and every time has had its special meaning for us.

In the opposite direction we have surfed twice while travelling in Scotland and two times while travelling in Portugal. Both experiences were unbelievably positive and we will not hesitate to do it again. It really made our journey a true success!
