About Me

IMPORTANT:
After Split,Kaštela, Slunj now I'm living in Zagreb.
As I'm living in hotel room now, hotel's regulations applied. No foreigners overnight, just shower, meal if you like vegan's and storage for the few days.
Fees for the domestic guests according hotel's rules (depends of the season)

I like to quote my ideal cyclist Mladen Gacesa
"I'm not a cyclist, I'm just a man who rides a bicycle"

I was waiting for my retirement to go around the world by bike. That was the main reason why I joined this group.
But instead to go on the World tour, the world came to my places through the guests from 50 countries.
As active members of Warmshower, Bewelcome, fb group shower and bed (Tuš i krevet-Croatian version of Warmshower) and Couchsurfing, until now I've hosted over 500 guests ( cyclists mostly).

I'm not seeking for some adventure, I just try to offer you what I was looked for when I was on my bike tours, safe place, secure bike storage, warm shower, kitchen to prepare meals, comfortable bed, internet, and some information about safe roads to the next place, and of course your stories from the road if you are willing to share it.
NOTES:
Requests from profiles without photo and full name won't be taken in consider.

Friend's requests without knowing each others will be denied.

Canceling your arrival without let me know in the case if I have to denied other request at same time will be provided with negative reference.

PHILOSOPHY

Be aware of what you want, maybe it's come true.

The things are never so bad that can't be even worse.

Don't worry, be happy.

Live and let me live.

So be Good and do Good...!!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting mostly

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Connecting warmshowers and CS, I even separately hosted seven people one month - it was one of the best experience what I have ever had. It was hard to remember even faces not to talk about names! So I put every picture of my guests in to the album to not forget them. It was amazing how Koreans, French, Australians, Poles, Mexicans, Brits, Americans, Czechs, Italians, and Slovenians can live under the same roof and not have any problems at all. - It shows how little we need to be happy.
