Hi! :)
My name is Andrea, and people usually call me Andrea. But a lot of time I come even they didn’t call me! ;) I have interesting surname – Beč. In Croatian it means Wien. But I’m not Austian, I’m Ukrainian. But I never been in Ukraina. My grandfather was born there, but when he was 5 year old he came to leave in Croatia. Still, I spend few years learning Ukrainian language, preparing Ukrainian dishes etc.
Beside Croatia and Ukraine, my big love is also my future profession – occupational therapy. I was studying it for 3 years, and now I only need to do my internship and write my dissertation.
I was born in Vukovar (little town in east part of Croatia), but since 2012 I live in capital city – Zagreb. Now, my hometown is Marsaskala (east cost of Malta) because here I’m doing my internship in Foundation for inclusion – Inspire.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of my biggest loves is travelling. But like most of young people I'm always short with money. So, I find couch surfing like ideal solution for my problem. Also there is one, maybe more important thing, with couch surfing you get opportunity to meet great people. I see this as great opportunity to see the county from one completely different perception - trough eyes of couch surfing host.
