I grew up in New Jersey and went in school in Delaware so the bulk of my life has been spent in a small area. Through traveling I have been fortunate enough able to see more, and hope to keep doing so, especially where I can find fully immersive experiences. I love to learn about cultures and find that while the differences are interesting the similarities are even more fascinating to learn about. I love all forms of adventure, be it skiing, mountain biking, or the occasional night out. On the other hand, I also like to sit back and relax, taking time to learn something new or to catch up with friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a recent college grad trying to travel before starting to work full time. I am an introvert and enjoy traveling alone, but love the challenge of pushing my limits to live the way locals live. I would love to meet some hosts who are just as avid about telling people the places to see in their country, as I am to go see them. I'll be traveling in my car which is sleep in ready, so all I am looking for is a place to park and shower, and hopefully to find people with suggestions for places to check out

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Played stick ball with Cherokee people in North Carolina while on a service trip.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd describe myself as a jack of many trades, and master of none. But I have a fondness for photography, literature, extreme sports, and punk music so I would love to discuss those with you. I also love swapping travel stories, and especially educating people about my family's home country of Serbia!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I very crafty and good with my hands so give me a puzzle or a broken machine and I will tinker around with it until it's fixed. I'm a pretty decent cook, my grandma will support that claim. I love planning adventures so if you are looking into where to go next yourself I am more than happy to do some research with you.

Bonus I'm pretty tall so if you need a hand changing a light bulb I'm your man.
