About Me

CURRENT MISSION

studying, working, traveling...

ABOUT ME

Hmm, what shell I write about me??

I'm coming from small village Delnice, near main city Zagreb. I'm really found of traveling, so I go several time of year somewhere, anywhere, just to find something else in different country.
I think that every country is special, just like person, and you must accept that while you are traveling, to make your life much more easier.

I love everything- different food, crazy people, adventures, amazing stuff to see...

I love when people are direct, friendly, open minded, and of course-LOVE to talk:D!

I'm a clean guest and independent- so you don't have to be my tourist guide, if you don't feel like it. I love to explore city on my own. But it's also very good to talk with locals about what is their opinion about the city, or country because it gives you another way of looking on things.

I do a lot of sports, because that is just my way of living. My premier sport is orienteering running-it's OK if you didn't heard about that:). But it's give you a lot of fan and I'm enjoying running.

Well that's it, I guess. If you ant to know something more, please, feel free to ask:).

PHILOSOPHY

It's only one life, and it's easier to survive it with sport, travel, funny people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can be a free touristic guide across Zagreb and area of Gorski Kotar:)!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I didn't have much of CS experience, but I went to a meting in Amsterdam, and I can really say that that was really good way of spending your evening.
I didn't know anybody, but it gives you feeling like you knew everybody. Now I know what to do next time when I'm somewhere.

That I wrote when I first come to CS. Now every time I go somewhere else I'm traying to go couchsurfing somewhere. It is amazing what other people can do,say,think,write...

Interests

My interests-hmm, well like I said I love to travel, meat new people, see mix of culture, exchange experience, run, enjoy life, feel free.

Running.
When you are running it's gives you feeling that you put all your bad things behind you. And that is the most beautiful feeling that I know.

I love to do caving, canoeing-well any kind of sports that I think is interesting and little bit adventure:).

What else-well I really like everything, and I don't ask for much so I'm happy with anything that some city/people can offer me. But it must be interesting:).

Music, Movies, and Books

Books-hmm, well Ana Karenjina ( Tolstoj), Crime and Punishment (Dostojevski), Perfume (Patrick Süskind)...

Music-I prefer rock( old rock)! But- everything-depends how I'm feeling. I love also Irish music and pop(sometimes)...

Movies: cartoons-yes I know it's little bit strange but come on: Ice age, Madagascar, Chimpanzees in universe???!!! The children don't understand that kind of movies:D!

But I also like The princes and the frog:))!
