Please, do write me JUST IN EMERGENCY when you are in the vicinity of Bratislava/Preßburg or within city limits and you still get no couch here. I have an experience people do order couch with me one-two-three weeks in advance and then do not turn up. Plus hitch-hikers often arrive to me just before/after I go to work at 5:15am.
And further to your frequently asked questions: I don't live in centre of the city (14 minutes by bus) - indeed B'lava is a very small town, so I don't understand questions like "How far is to the centre?" (btw what do You mean with city centre: Slavin memorial?, Eurovea shopping mall?, St Martin's Dome (the crowning church of our royals)?, the Castle?, and yes, I do use this CS-profile for communication only! I have no Faszabook or Whatsoup, neither Instag, Telegrampf, Tinder, Binder, Tiktatik etcetera! Plus I do prefer non-smokers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My only window to the world.

I do like very much the political jokes and lampoons ("Joke is the only weapon of powerless and defenceless" - Alberto Moravia) from our Czechoslovakian past in 20th Century, something like as follows:
...
Czechoslovakia, 1951. Gusta Fučíková, the chief-editor of a women magazine Květy české makes an interview with Martha Gotwaldová, the wife of the first communist president of CS, comrade Klement Gottwald. She puts a first question: - "Dear comrade First Lady, what is your daily routine?"
- " Well, on Monday, I wake up, put dressing-gown, make breakfast and clean a penis."
- "And on Tuesdays?" asks Gusta Fučíková after the first shock,
- " On Tuesdays, indeed, I do wake up, put sarong (present of chairman Mao), make breakfast and clean a penis."
Not believing what she hears, Gusta Fučíková wants tu put a cold blood face:
- "And what do you do Wednesdays?"
- "On Wednesday, I do wake up, take slippers, then dressing-gown, make breakfast and clean a penis.",
The same scenario goes for Thursday, Friday and Saturday (which was until Dubček's democratization-reforms in 1968 the working day in CS - note KT).
Then Gusta Fučíková asks in horror "Comrade First Lady, which penis do you clean? Of your husband, comrade President?"
- "Oh noooooooooooo!" - responds Martha Gottwaldová - "I do take bucket, water, soap and broom and I clean the dick, the enemies of my husband write on the wall of our villa in Prague!"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Not vaccinated!

Your choice...
I do not recommend the free tour of Bratislava, as it´s too ideologised by those young guides.
BTW, visiting just Bratislava/Pozsonyi you´ll miss the Slovakia proper: https://youtu.be/cG4aYsvgchA?si=r4aG1BRjiU-hUxy9
Please note: I am minimalist and I don´t want belong to this corporate world w/its false petty-bourgeois morale.
