Hello!

I'm Filip and I'm coming from Rijeka, a small but soulful town on the north cost of Croatia. After highschool I moved to the capital of Croatia (Zagreb) to study electrical engineering which I really like, but currently I am taking part in a student exchange program (Erasmus) so I'm studying in Aachen, Germany. When I finish my Erasmus time, I only have to write my master thesis and I'm done studying. Or maybe not. Maybe I'll be doctoral student. I still have some time to decide.

Concerning my personality, I like to think of myself as cheerful, open-minded person, always ready for a new adventure. I like to meet new people, drink coffee or beer, listen to music, watch movies, travel, cook, dance, walk, or just be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why am I on Couchsurfing? I always wanted to learn how to surf but never really get to the place with big waves. So I'll take a chance with couches.

I am new here and I think it is a great opportunity to meet locals while traveling. Get all the details, finesses and not-popular-but-very-interesting stuff about the visiting place.

I would also like to host some people, but unfortunately I can't at the moment.

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC - all that feels good in my ears

MOVIES
I would say genre is not important, but I like dramas the most. Art movies are also welcome.
Some movies worth mentioning: Birdman, Babel, Intouchables, Mr Nobody, Das Boot, The Lives of Others, Bogowie, Before Sunrise (Sunset and Midnight also), Perfume, The Place Beyond the Pines, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, Midnight in Paris
