About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy the life.

ABOUT ME

Good time guy and very happy person who have organised his life surprisingly confortable. Enjoying his proffessional work, travelling, reading, cooking, exploring nature, meeting people, jumping in unpredictable and good situations.

I have graduated Film direction. As a director and scriptwriter I've created a long feature, several TV features, number of documentaries and experimental films, and as a producer cartoon series, touristic films and commercials.
For a last fifteen years I am professor of film and media production at Academy of Dramatic Art, University of Zagreb.

Since I remember I travel ... and travel ... and travel!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is beautiful. Don't discover it too late.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

So far I've hosted a number of very nice people and visit some very nice people as well.

CS is an excellent concept, helping members to meet and understand local people, habits, culture, and different ways of life. And sometimes even learn something about local food and cooking.

And it is not based on money issues!
