About Me

Hey there!

I guess I'll start describing myself with a word that serves as an adjective for most of my character traits and my nature. So, restless. :D
I'm all about constant activity, and yet I try to balance my nature by learning how to be "lazy" at times. :)

A political analyst and journalist by diploma and profession, but also an artist by soul and interests. I belong to nature as equally as I belong to the city and its noise and daily stories.

I'm a vegetarian (12 years already) and I love cooking. Fun fact: I cook some meat, since my fiancé is still not completely vegetarian.

I ENJOY meeting new people - it's what keeps me happy, what refreshes my soul and what teaches me acceptance and unconditional love. I love to love. I love to help, and I love to listen.

I live with my fiancé Nick and we have three cats.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's simple - I consider travel and meeting new people one of the priceless riches we get to experience in life.

Music, Movies, and Books

Uhhh, I'll try to keep it simple. When it comes to music, I'd always choose metal first, especially prog, death and trash. From Death, Slayer, Sepultura, Lamb of God and Pantera, to Opeth, Aghora, Blotted Science, Russian Circles, Alter Bridge, Jinjer, Conquering Dystopia, to Riverside, Tool, Cynic and many other (including Macedonian metal bands like Verka and Unending Fury).
I'm always in the mood for some good hard and classic rock, and dark/new wave, blues, good old school rap/hip hop and psy/prog trance.

Movies: Mostly European cinema, but I'm in the part of my life when I'm exploring the beauty of South Korean cinema, Japan and other Asian (mostly drama) films. Michael Haneke is my all-time favorite director!

I like TV shows, too. Nothing too commercial or pop culture-related though I sometimes make exceptions. :)

Books: We'll talk about this when we meet :D but: Sylvia Plath, Walt Whitman, P. Neruda, Lucian Blaga, Georgi Gospodinov, F. Kafka, Russian authors, German and French authors ... Oh, God. Books! From poetry and prose to educational and non-fiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Love fiercely and fearlessly, I guess...

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to learn new languages, all about your culture, music and life's riches in general. ;)
