ABOUT ME

grew up in Croatia, Osijek. finished the faculty of humanities, latin language and roman literature and hungarology. love languages. even if they re dead. or on their way to pass away. love mountains, miss them at the moment. love sports. interested in everything that s multikulti. I write a diary. for about 12 years. (but what does that say about me?)

love to laugh. especially when I don t have to do it alone. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

climbed Triglav (2864m, Slovenia)

I speak hungarian!

found out I can cook (and it s edible!)

I finish ironman. not once. that makes me an iron maiden.

I run marathons, but that s fun, it s not amazing! Amazing is if you re faster than the black runners!

Teach, Learn, Share

I d like to speak italian even better, learn french, start speaking german again. slovenian is a cute language, too... I suppose I ll find some new language, if I ever absolve these.

teach others. anything they re interested in, that I know.
