I finished Graphic design. Originally from a smaller town in central Serbia, I moved to Belgrade when I started college in 2012. I did study abroad and spent a year in California at the California State University Monterey Bay. I love doing analogue(film) photography, meeting new people, volunteering, going to random places and cities and places I've never been to before. I enjoy travelling, finding used books bookstores, flea markets & thrift shops, browsing in supermarkets, eating ice cream (especially Ben&Jerry's) and food in general, talking about Doctor Who and creating stories in my head. I mumble a lot, people don't understand me quite. * I have a slight obsession with flags and maps.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

- I'm here to meet new people, get to know the locals and see the places from a perspective of those who live there.

- Find a place to stay while travelling because that's usually the biggest obstacle for young people (especially from less financially developed countries like mine) when deciding to start traveling.

- Make friends (and pen pals perhaps) while getting to know the places I'm visiting, and not just the tourist facts that I can find online. So far I had some really nice CS experiences. It's really an amazing way to connect with people and explore the world. I hope to share some of my stories and hear yours!
