About Me

CURRENT MISSION

not wait for a miracle, be it

ABOUT ME

I'm trying to live my life the way that I could feel I'm not just wasting space. I'm always seeking for some crazy activities, for insane challenges. The biggest thing I'm afraid of is that I'm not really afraid of anything (and that's not good!) I'm not very creative person on my own, thus I keep looking for someone or something to motivate me. I live for emotions, if I can help a person and get a smile in return, I've made my day.

PHILOSOPHY

There are so many things to do in this world so take a hold of any chance you get.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope very soon I will settle somewhere and be able to organize sort of a hideaway for all the travelers who pass by, so called "home for all", where everyone could stay as long as they want, get some useful information about surrounding area, meet new friends and not worry about money (as it's all donation based). I've stayed in few places like that and they were awesome. Yet, I haven't made my mind up where that perfect place for me would be to do that, so I still keep traveling gathering knowledge and experience. There's always something to learn from anyone and I'm very glad to make new connections.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm still just making my first steps in CS world, but they've already made some serious impact on my life and I'm thankful for that opportunity
