About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be more adventurous. And start playing again. Piano, that is.

ABOUT ME

I feel a bit silly writing the usual stuff such as "I'm fun, friendly, most of the time easy to get along with and almost always up for anything", even though my friends tend to think I am, hahaha... I guess you'll just have to decide for yourself.

I love to sleep. I sometimes can't stop smiling when I finally get to my bed and there are numerous photos that prove that I actually smile while sleeping. But don't worry, that still doesn't mean I will move into your place and never leave your couch. ;)

I tend to smile a lot when I'm awake too, especially around people I don't know well and find interesting in any way.

I love talking till dawn. I also love live music and concerts or having a beer with a bunch of friends.

Oh yeah, and I'm tall.

PHILOSOPHY

Think, but don't think too much. In the end it's what you feel that matters.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As best I can. Most of the time I party with people and pretend to be a tour guide. Just don't ask me too many questions about history because chances are I won't be able to remember my own birthday, much less when something really important happened.

These days I travel a lot for work, so I am almost never in Zagreb. And when I am, I normally spend my weekends somewhere in the mountains.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not enough of it, if you ask me... :)

Interests

Dancing (going crazy in front of my mirror as well as salsa, swing dancing, hip hop and a little bit of ballroom), singing in the shower, photography, long walks and talks, music, design, fashion, making and designing clothes and accessories, buying great stuff on sale, backpacking, camping and traveling in general, reading, watching funny movies and TV shows etc.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: I love relaxing and witty comedies, but I do enjoy an occasional drama and action/thriller. Actually, now that I think about it, I like pretty much everything except for horror movies. If you want to see me scream, flinch violently and gobble down popcorn like it's the end of the world, horror movies are your best bet. Yes, I'm that scared. -.-

Music: I listen to many types of music (depending on the mood) but these days it's mostly indie rock, pop punk or something acoustic.

Books: used to be fantasy with an occasional chick lit piece. Nowadays I am trying to expand my reading list so I'm open for suggestions!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Does seeing the change of the millennium count? :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I am usually up for anything so learning different things shouldn't be much of a problem. As for teaching... well, I can certainly teach you some Croatian, maybe basic principles of photography if you're interested. And how to make soup, because I love soup! :)

Oh, and if you can teach me how to make a proper cup of turkish coffee that'd be great! Nobody has managed that so far... :D

What I Can Share with Hosts

A vast array of really bad jokes. I promise you'll be laughing though.
