ćao! ヾ(ෆ⁍̴̆ દ ⁍̴̆ ෆ)ノ

I'm dora and I live in Zagreb while studying for a biology degree, though to be honest the vast majority of my time is spent elsewhere, exploring various topics and creative outlets (I suck at most of them) such as drawing/painting, reading, writing, dancing and learning new skills (at the moment it's longboarding and playing guitar) as well as finding solace in nature whenever possible, be it mushroom hunting, swimming, cycling or hiking..

besides that, meeting new people while traveling and getting to hear their stories and experiences, learning about our different backgrounds, interests and outlooks on the world is always interesting, hence this profile on couchsurfing.
