CURRENT MISSION
Learn how
to step into the fire and stay there for a while.
ABOUT ME
Curious, spontaneous dreamer. I believe in elves and ancient myths. In permanent conflict (or symbiosis?) between my Apollonian and Dionysian nature.

PHILOSOPHY
suffering exists but there is no one to blame, everything is connected and everything passes away.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
My home is your home.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Couchsurfing boat in Amsterdam, little house in mountains in Romania, night with six couchsurfers on the 7m2 floor in Lubljana student dormitory, sleeping in a austrian cave with couchsurfing friends, creating international band in Stockholm, sharing my flat with 10 polish guys, getting lost in polish villages, getting loud in Vilnius streets with foreign travellers and warm evenings with spicy tea. I could tell many other memorable stories about my couchsurfing experience but hope everything is still ahead.
