I am a calm, open-minded and respectful person who truly enjoys meeting people from different cultures.

I work in international economic cooperation and have many years of experience communicating with people from different countries and backgrounds. Traveling for me is not just about visiting places, but about understanding local culture, daily life, and people.

I value honesty, personal boundaries, cleanliness, and clear communication. I am not a party person — I prefer meaningful conversations, walks around the city, local food, and learning how people actually live.

I am easy to live with, organized, and always treat my host’s home with care and respect.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use Couchsurfing because I believe the best way to discover a country is through its people.

I enjoy cultural exchange, sharing stories, experiences, and learning from locals. I am happy to listen, to share my own background, and to respect the lifestyle and rules of my host.

For me, Couchsurfing is about trust, mutual respect, and human connection — not just accommodation.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy a wide range of music, from soft jazz and classical to international pop.

I enjoy reading non-fiction, books on economics, international relations, and personal development, as well as quality fiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I’ve done is stepping far outside my comfort zone many times — growing professionally, traveling independently, and learning to feel at home in very different cultures.

Through many years of work in international cooperation, I had the opportunity to participate in international projects and meetings with people from diverse backgrounds. This experience taught me adaptability, empathy, respect for personal space, and the ability to connect with people naturally and easily.

Balancing professional responsibility with curiosity about everyday life, cultures, and ordinary human stories has been one of the most meaningful experiences in my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share insights about my culture and country, international work experience, and real-life perspectives on global topics.

I enjoy meaningful conversations, cultural exchange, and learning about local traditions, history, and daily life from my hosts.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share pleasant and meaningful conversations, cultural exchange, and a respectful presence in my host’s home.

I am always mindful of personal boundaries, keep shared spaces clean, and follow house rules.

I believe that mutual respect, openness, and kindness are what make a Couchsurfing experience truly enjoyable for both sides.
