About Me

I'm passionate about traveling, design, photography and architecture. When I'm traveling, I'm not just putting mark on the map, but other way around. I really do enjoy company of locals. To share, give and learn from them. I do not fancy hotels or any kind of luxury places, I rather enjoy the stay with locals at there homes, and it doesn't matter in what kind of place they live. The most important is the personality of that specific person and place, the story itself.
My love is being on nature, specifically mountains, wild places, little villages and they locals. Preferably places which are not crowded with tourists. Of course, I do love popular touristic places as well.

Music, Movies, and Books

It depends of my mood really. If I need some energy, then rock, if I do feel a bit down, the lyric songs, if I want to scream and unload myself with anger, than metal, and so on goes with my moody.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had a chance to work and live in Africa, Zambia. Working with project call ''Hope'', where people are sick with HIV/AIDS, and boosting they willing to live and to be happy. Working with pre schools and youth. Working with rural communities and collaborating with local doctors. Nutrition and how to boost immune system.
