I grew up between three countries, first Yugoslavia then Germany then newly independent Croatia, currently thinking about making a new home for myself somewhere in somewhere in Europe or the USA, I mean, hey, I'm close to my thirties, it's time to try something new :)

I believe the best way to get to know places is simply to stay there for a while, and there are a lot of places is still want to get to know.

I earn my living doing web development, which can be fun and rewarding if you're working for the right company, and it's not too hard to find a job pretty much anywhere you go.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to travel and get to know people, find some common ground or just discuss things, life, whatever, you can learn so much from other people, they spent their whole life thinking about things in their own way which may be totally different from what you're used to.

I haven't really been able to host CS people yet, partly due to lack of requests, but also because I've usually shared apartments with roommates, girlfriends etc.
I'm pretty sure I'm gonna take the plunge once I get an apartment of my own.

When I get the chance to travel for a while I don't usually like to plan in advance, part of the reason being that I usually travel alone so I have a chance to just go with the flow, but also because I believe that while by following a specific route or on a schedule you also miss out on many interesting experiences along the way.

Interests

Traveling with as little stuff as possible, activities considered dangerous that really aren't, minimalism, computer science, technology and a bunch of other geeky stuff

I'm really into rock climbing even though I'm not that good to be honest :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I've come around to enjoy a lot of different kinds of music over the years, punk, grunge, rock, indie, progressive rock, yu-rock, electronic music, ... as long as it sounds good to me personally I'm down with it.
