I like traveling in a way that I can discover the country - I don't want to participate in organised trips for tourist groups. I'd rather take a book to a park in distant city than take a bus with 50 other tourists to some extraordinary attraction.

I already have a wonderful girlfriend and I'm not here looking for dates. I want to meet and exchange stories. If you are freelancing in IT and startup area, I may have job offers :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking for interesting people that know about places that I plan to visit. So more for best places to eat and best places to see, that are not crowded with tourists, than for place to sleep.

Music, Movies, and Books

From classical music to metal, including Japanese rock and other interesting things. Book mostly fantasy. And cookbooks, I have plenty of them.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know how to cook, I know a lot about mythology and history. I have a passion for science - in every aspect. I like board games, especially those complicated ones.
