About Me

I am an introvert who likes to socialise in controlled environment, I like to push my boundaries and explore new things.
I grew up in Belgrade which is the capital of Serbia. Growing up I didn't travel much but as soon as I gained independence I fell in love with exploring the world and hidden places in it. Now I cannot imagine not planning my next holiday.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to travel and to meet open-minded people all around the globe. It makes me think better of the mankind and feel more connected to the human race. Also it provides me with better understanding of human nature, customs, and way of thinking.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I'm into metal and prog. Currently obsessed with Porcupine tree, Opeth, Devin Townsend, Katatonia, Shining...
Books:I love reading but my all time favourite authors would have to be J.R.R. Tolkien and Jane Austen. I've read and re-read their books a thousand times. Other than that I love The hopskotch by Julio Cortázar, L'été by Albert Camus (because it reminds me of my stay in Algeria), Out of Africa by Karen Blixen...
I'm not that big on movies, I prefer watching TV shows especially ones by BBC (comedy or period drama). As I've been trying to learn Swedish recently, I got hooked on their detective series such as Bron/Broen and Beck.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Serbian language and culture, some basics on the piano (if you have one).
I have a keen interest in psychology and religion so if you're into a debate about the meaning of the world and origins I'd be more than happy in engage in it.
