Discovering South America

ABOUT ME

What motivates me: ART, creative people, NATURE, music.
Happiness is for me: sharing love, giving love, receiving love, connection with living beings and nature, dancing, festivals...

I was born and raised in Croatia, where I finished Faculty of Architecture & Urban planning. After that I moved to Germany, lived and worked there for 7 years. Last year I quit my job and decided to travel and volunteer. Been traveling and exploring the Universe since I was 16.

PHILOSOPHY

Although it´s a cliché - ´Live every day like it´s your last!´ - and I really try to live like that, experiencing everything with no regrets! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

…because cultural exchange is important! I would like to meet local people that can tell me more about culture and share their life stories and show me places they like.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Beeing a good company, sharing my travel stories, cooking and keeping the place clean… and once I am back to Germany or Croatia (or who knows where) and have my base, I would be happy to host You.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted people so far when I was living in Croatia (Zagreb) and Germany (Rostock and Berlin) and I slept on many couches in many countries. :)
