Hi there, my name is Alen. I'm from Dubrovnik (Croatia), and I've spent a major portion of my life living, studying and working in various European countries such as Slovenia, Germany, U.K. , Sweden, Switzerland, before returning to my hometown in 2016.

I'm a certified tour guide and traveling has always been my biggest passion. I've worked in this industry since I can remember, and I've traveled to a fair share of countries all around the world. I like to immerse myself into the culture, food and history of the hosting country in order to get an authentic experience!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe its a great way to meet locals and get to know deeper insights of the country's culture!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love (binge) watching movies and tv shows of any genre. Chris Nolan is by far my favorite movie director, with Memento being my absolute favorite movie of all time.
When it comes to music, I also have a fairly broad taste - although Rock and Heavy Metal Music will always be my favorite genres - with bands such as Staind, Disturbed, Godsmack and Tremonti being on the top of the list :)
