Personal Description

During these years as CS member - I can say I grew up in a way I would've probably never imagined..but let's leave that for you to discover if you want to meet up with me..

In the mean time if you're interested in finding out what I like, you can easily check out my blog here! - it's turning more and more into a photo blog I guess since a while now, I'm very fond of photography and I'm going to sign up for the photography school in town starting from autumn 2009 - so will see how that goes.

Other then that I can say that - I'm an open minded person, quite passionate about my beliefs and most of the time I'll try to do my best to make your stay as comfortable as possible..

And if you wish to see some of my photos you can always look me up on flickr

Interests


Meeting new interesting people!!! I'm interested in meeting people that are coming in Romania to know the country, its people, its culture and lifestyle. I don't like people that use me, push me away or take me as a 3rd party between him and his gf and I need to keep the candle so that he could have sex with her.

-------------------


*Parties:

- well I always like to get down on the floor dance and get lunatic or show off on the dance floor;

- I definitely like to organize private parties and you’ll never regret attending one of them.

*Drinking:

- Well this could be the huge LOL section – well I could say drinking it’s not really an interest but when you judge about the parties it’s a related thing so…

- I like drinking but not till I get smashed or anything like that: good shots of vodka, tequila or any other type of cocktails;

- But I also enjoy drinking lots of juices, especially nectar( my favorite is bananas and strawberries).

*Food:

- I eat it all and I think the subject it’s closed and food is something I’ll definitely try everywhere I’ll travel.

*Sports:

- Well I’m more of a winter sports fan(skiing, snowboarding);

- But I enjoy watching at swimming, curling, handball or volleyball;

- And lately I’ve been really fascinated by paragliding.

*Photos
- Well it's my favorite thing

- Just watch out you’ll never know when I’ll take an instant shot of you with my cam – I think instant shots done when you don’t even realize what happened are much more cool then those prepared pictures that you take minutes to set your camera and stuff to take a picture – “it’s live the moment baby”

- But I also like taking pictures of landscapes and especially sunsets and the shapes and colors of clouds at sunset.

*Traveling:

- I guess this requires no specifications

Seby is a great guy and a good organiser. I felt him very close as I have known him for a long time. Both of us are talkative and wasn't a problem to have a lot of chats. He helps you every time and seems to be never tired. Such a energy is very hard not to touch you and stay far away from him who is the soul of the party. He spiced many moments from the Romanian Spring Camp. Also has a great sense of humor:D. Just wait to meet him again.

We are tired both nights and he was busy with work and configurating his new Computer, still we had nice chats. Hope to meet Seby again, keep in touch! Thanks for the hosting!

I surfed Sebys couch fter I had just mailed him some questiosn and he agreed to host me which I wasnt even asking for:-) But it ended up being a nice experience with a hospitable person who goes for a party and introduces you to hist friends. He is well connected and helped me to find a place in another town too. I am sure we will stay in contact. You are welcome to surf my couch when I am settled!

I stayed with Seb for a couple of days three years ago. There was an American guest at his place while I was there, and we all had a fun and memorable time together. He helped me out alot during my stay. He was actually the person that introduced me to couchsurfing, for which I'm very grateful. He even trusted me enought to vouch for me to increase me chances of finding a host. If you're ever in Brasov, write Seb a mail. He loves helping people out. Great guy! Thanks!

just when we were planning to get on the road, we got a message from seby telling us there would be a small brasov meeting and that i should come, and so come i did. we succeeded in turning two people onto couchsurfing and after going crazy karaoke-style we squeezed ourselves into the smallest street in europe, running away from bears and cats. Seby is what the couchsurfing spirit is all about!

How could I forget to leave a seby a reference? I arrived in bucharest, signed on to cs chat, and an hour later he and I had planned out my next couple weeks, and that included a memorable visit with him. it's true what he says about being outgoing: we tried to befriend several other foreigners on the bus. he isn't just the persona of cs brasov, but the persona of cs!

Sebi is an interesting guy. He talks a lot and he likes to organise things like parties or meetings (if you really want to see him in action you should try the CouchSurfing Meeting in March - Sinaia). He has a lot of friends because, as he said, he's a very talkative person. If you pass through Brasov and meet Sebi you will definitely go to Paris Panam a bar in the old center of the city. From there you can actualy go anywhere. We don't know about Sebi the things he doesn't like. And you know...if you get to know a person realy good you have to find out what bothers him. But, as a romanian proverb sais, the time is not lost yet.

Ok let's say neutral, because the first part was positive. But the other was really strange and negative, tiring and expensive...
Ha was kind with us, because he came for us to the downtown, we drank a beer with some other CSurfers in Brasov so that was OK.
We said him that we should know if he can host us or not, in order to have time to find a nice place we like to stay. Actually we felt that something is not OK with hosting us for him, but he said finally that its OK, he can host us, so OK, all right, we went to his parents flat and to his very small room together.
And left about 11 o'clock, because he said us to sleep in a sofa, OK, but imagine: he said they will work there with his - quite strange - boyfriend all over the night on computer about 50 cm far from the sofa, because they have job, and they are usually not sleepy all over the night. Actually maybe they had no place where to sleep in that room. It was very strange and would've been funny for us, if it wouldn't be so-so late. If he had told us the situation, we shouldn't need to stay in a really stupid hotel for almost 100 Euro in the city...

I had spent wonderful 3 days with him in Brasov, Râşnov, Bran, Moeciu, Transfogarasan and also hosted him in Sf. Gheorghe. I am so thankful to him to show me hidden places in the beautiful Carpathian mountains. I hope he will always be my friend.

This guy helped me to experience one of my highest views of the world so far. Fagarasan mountains in The Carpatians.
We got there and he suggested that we would climb up the last 300 some meters to the mountain ridge to get a better view. Stupid me gets into the idea which I suffered for the day after. Not only did my shoes totaly collapse on this trip and climb but also my legs wouldnt obey me the next day, but it was definetly worth it! Thanks! Hope to see you soon again!

Sebi generously hosted me and Steven for a couple of nights in his home near Brasov. He also showed us around, recommended places to eat and drink, went out with us and generally helped out in any way he could. Moreover he's quite an interesting guy to talk to, and overall we had a good time during our stay there. Thanks! Catch you in some big CS meeting I'm sure. :^)

Sebi - happy to meet you every time possible!!! welcome to Bucharest! we met at Sinaia, where i had the surprise to see him with all his computer with him. i think we are alike a lot: as i'm with mobiles, he's with computers! he is a trusty & correct person, and he always thinks about other ppl, and he is a perfectionist in doing-things.
he has as same good principles & values as i do and we got along so very well.

Great times with Seby, this guy is full of energy and life, and boy, can he talk:) We spent an awesome day in some remote part of Bran in his friend Alexs' grandparents home. It was an experience no amount of money can buy, simply amazing.

I admire his dedication to couchsurfing and efforts to make it better for all...it was a real pleasure to meet him.

Sebi was one of the most attentive hosts I've ever had :D He really looked after my every need and tried to make sure I was comfortable in every way...

Sebi is also incredibly active in CS, an excellent Ambassador for Romania and very focussed on continuing the creation of our wonderful Couchsurfing Project...

He took me on a hiking trip up Piatra Mare(1800m)... It was a wonderful day of drinking fresh spring water and wishing we had brought sandwiches :) Definitely one of the greatest experiences of this journey so far...

Don't hesitate to contact Sebi for any reason... I'm sure he'll help you out any way he can...

First we met through chat and during my Balkan trip he hosted me at his place for 2 nights. I was a real pleasure to meet Seby in real after such a long time and to get to know the person behind the text screen. Seby is an easy going and openminded guy with a golden heart and definitely an added value for the CS project.
One month later, he came to Brussels where I hosted him for one night. A few days later we met again for a mini meeting in Leuven.

We also had what I think was the world's biggest pizza when I stayed with him!! And since we are both apparetly fashion victims, who like to stay up late, party, and are addicted to our computers, we had more than enough in common, and got along very well! Sebi, man, I wish you could come to London in April, but either way, I will hopefully be coming back to Romania sometime soon! I miss it there.

I met seb on the chat, get really good time laughing with him on the chat.
He invited me at his place. It was a cool, and really I enjoyed my time with him. (except that he arrived 4 hours late at the train station he was suppose to take me at, and didn't call or hang up when i was calling me :p) but all in all it was ok.

The things turned wrong after,
and here are the reasons which make me let him a bad reference:

- I was suppose to host him this christmas. and Smi and were doing our best to host him during christmas time... and at the top of the rush to plan everything Seb didn't show up the day he should have, but turn to be unreachable for a week. Which is really a bad behavior when you re taking the shit out of you to host him.

- He blocked me, deleted me from his friend (i was a good friend for him), and the only reason i get for that was:
I am a selfish person, and that I didn't vouch him. (I didn't cause i don't think he trustable in terms of organisation regarding CS) I considered him as friend, I didn't not vouch him for personal reasons).

- He spread bad rumours (to at least one of my friend) telling about me I had sex with the big boss's daughter of my previous job, and that I sent a mail to the entire compagny.
Spreading rumours like this one without checking them first might be really bad for the people involved.

- And keep sending me friend request and deleting them before i get the time to even read one of them.

Sebi, Sebi... is a really nice and interesting guy. His hosting quality was very good (I stayed one more night than it was planned and I'm thankful for that too) and I really liked the idea of going to Sighisoara instead of Bran... Thumbs up!

What else to say? I really hope we meet some other time Sebi because I think we can have a lot of great talks and nice time together (being serious as well as stupid jokes ;)).

This was just a short time at his place so I will not say I know him well but I felt very comfortable with him: it is for me a sign that we could develop a friendship out of this.

Thanx a lot Sebi for your time and don't forget, I'm a CIA! ;)
