About Me

Thinker, musician, open-minded, social, listener, observer, atheist, non-political, creative, humorous, philosophical, vegan, adventurous, travel addict...

I'm a bit of everything, I like long philosophical conversations as well as nonsense joking.

I have a good (sometimes terrible) sense of humor and I think it's one of the important things in order for people to understand each other well.

I like traveling to a new place, getting lost in an unknown city and find places I normally wouldn't find if I followed the book. Like to knock random people's door to ask them if I can see how they live in any place I'm traveling.

I'm vegan but it's nothing political so I have no problem seeing other people eating meat, and I love cooking.

I'm addicted to music, I play in a band and compose myself, and I listen to many different genres.

I work as a social worker (in a home for people with schizophrenia and substance abuse).

I like going out, drinking beers, meeting up with friends, travelers and also meet new people. I usually go for the underground scenes in the city and try to avoid the mainstream.

I like photography!

I'm an experienced traveler and I take some of my experiences as a kind of my education cause I don't read books very well and I refuse that reading books and getting a proof of graduation paper is the only education in this world.

I'm quite spontaneous.

Now, you go tell something about yourself..

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting people from other cultures is wine for my soul.
I enjoy listening, sharing experiences, joking, laughing, and going out to learn about life.
