About Me

Bosnian living in Paris! I've had the privilege of living in many different countries (Egypt, India, USA) and meeting people from different cultures throughout my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Being a stranger in a new city is so much better if you know a local, so I love Couchsurfing because I get to meet new people :) The experience of visiting a place with the help of a local is a million times better than being a lowly tourist!

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite movies of the moment:
"Queen & Slim" Melina Matsoukas
"And Then We Danced" Levan Akin
"Capernaum" Nadine Labaki

Books I love:
"The Handmaid's Tale" by Margaret Atwood
"White Teeth" by Zadie Smith
"De Niro's Game" by Rawi Hage

Music: My tastes really vary based on the time and day and on my mood but generally I really like indie pop/indie rock. It's really hard to choose one favorite artist, but some of my favorites are Mashrou'Leila, Tash Sultana, and Hector Gachan.
