About Me

Big foodie who likes to travel. After a bit of a hiatus, I started travelling again! Want to meet locals, explore authentic food, music and natural beauty. I just joined CS so I'm still finding my way 'round. I am open to meeting to talk over any audio/video chat platforms beforehand.

I will be able to host soon.

Ideally, I'd like to stay with (and host) people who like to share their culture and interests, who can be local guides and just talk and get to know each other a bit. I would never want to hog anyone's time or intrude, but it would be great to spend some time together, whether it's a beer/dinner, or some kind of activity or trip around your place or mine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My upcoming trip is on a budget, and I realised this platform might be a place for me to keep expenses in check, while staying with locals. I can reciprocate in Zagreb, Croatia and be your local guide!

Besides offering a place to stay, I can take you on trips around Croatia, share tips and ideas on what to do around here.

Music, Movies, and Books

Tough to say: everything from classical, to old school hard rock, prog-rock...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

DJed for several years while travelling as an argentine tango dancer and DJ. Visited most of European countries and met loads of great people!

Teach, Learn, Share

I used to tutor high school and university/PhD level mathematics, physics and chemistry. I am also tech-savvy and, being an IT professional, can give pointers on IT careers, technology etc.

I can share my travel experiences, give tips and highlights and help organise trips.

I have 15+ years of Argentine tango under my belt so we could go to some milonga or practica, or can give some lessons.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cooking, cleaning, driving, language exchange. Even some handy work if you need some light repairs.

Oh, and endlessly talk, especially about food and travelling.

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Montenegro, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russian Federation, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, United Kingdom, United States
