I am an energetic person, not afraid of any challenge, from which I have many stories, which I would be happy to tell you.
I have a lot of hobbies and to stay active I like to go hiking, camping (anything in nature really) and among the more extreme activities I do rockclimbing, parkour, historical fencing and ice baths. I am also huge nerd so anything lord of the rings, star wars or dungeons and dragons related I can talk hours about.
You can also find me on instagram @mariantomcik.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am naturally curious person and getting to know locals is also a good way to get to know the country.
I went on a (my first) trip to Norway in 2023 and a friend of mine told me about this app so I wanted to try it myself and so far I've met very kind people.

Music, Movies, and Books

When we talk about music I go for more underground vibe. It is hard to clasify the genre but I usually just call it folk rock. I go by a general rule: as long as I don't understand the lyrics, I enjoy it.

With movies and books: I love fantasy. Nothing feels better than an escape from reality.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

If I have to pick only one it would be ice bath in a river. In 2020 me and my friends decided that we will go take a bath in a river during winter. After half year of preparations we made it to the mountain river surrounded by ice and snow, the temperature was below zero and we stayed in water for 3 minutes which felt like eternity. Amazing experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have many stories that I can tell you about. Either about my adventures, about Slovakia and much more. I can also help you with theoretical core of the activities I mentioned before, but most of them take time and practice so don't be disapointed with not getting them the first time. Still some basis is a good place to start and I am happy to help.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Many stories! Even though in core I am a bit introverted I can talk openly with new people when I see their curiosity. I also know some random skills like solving Rubic's cube, juggling or jaw-harph playing so we can have some fun with that.
