About Me

Hi, my name is Juraj which is Croatian and means nothing less than "dragon slayer" commonly also referred to as "George". In real life I'm actually quite fond of dragons but have never met one in person.
I used to work as an illustrator but focus on music at the moment earning very little money because I figured that contributes to my credibility as an artist. I like to cook but sometimes capitalism gets ahold of me and I get so caught up in work that I forget to provide my body with vital nutrition. Luckily my flatmate reminds me to take a break in these cases. I prefer rock climbing over bouldering but I end up bouldering most of the time because it's just more convenient. I like Japanese food and dogs. The latte only on occasion. I don't like it when people confuse China and Japan or make generalised statements about "Africa". But I try not to point my finger because of course sometimes I am ignorant myself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm simply fed up with all the Airbnb. It's way nicer to support each other and have a personal level with travellers than to turn your place into a business.
