CURRENT MISSION

Find own place in this world

ABOUT ME

I'm a human being, one from many-many others on these planet.
I want to travel, to see different part of this great world, to see different cultures and new people, talk to people, understand them, stop some moments of their life and help somebody with a smile.
I don't like classic touristic routs, I like to explore new places by myself.

Now I'm taking care of my small daughter!

PHILOSOPHY

Do for people what you wish they've done to you.

Travel by foot for the sake of discovery, knowledge and self-improvement, as well as to meet other people and explore the whole world.

"Rather than a profession, photography has always been a passion form, a passion closer to an obsession."
Marc Riboud

"I always tell my students to shoot what’s around them. No need to track down disasters and wars, but just shoot what’s around them, just pick up your camera today and shoot."
Li Zhensheng

"That’s why teaching and learning is nothing. It’s living and looking. All these photography schools are a gimmick. What are they teaching? Could you teach me how to walk?"
Henri Cartier-Bresson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can show my city and country, can help with different tips.

Sometimes I can be a good travel companion.

After traveling in India for some time, I know that CS is not just for sleeping, but more for meeting great people. I want to say "thank you" for everybody whom I already met and will meet in future.
