Hi!
I am Martina, an adventurer at heart with a great enthusiasm to live to the fullest and share positive vibes around me.
I am very gratefull to be able to choose what I see in front of my eyes, and welcome every new day with a full heart. Creating, discovering and learning brings me happiness, and being able to share knowledge with amazing people even better.

If you want to learn more about what I do;
Most recently I was working as a cruise manager on a smaller cruise ship, in Croatia from Split to Dubrovnik, as well as Turkiye from Olympos to Fethiye, where I got to show people some hidden treasures of my country as well as share some knowledge about the Turkiye coastline and learn a bit of the language.
I meet a lot of interesting people along my path, through different interests or work.
I was also living in Gran Canaria where I worked as an entertainer where I could dance, practice yoga and different sports and meet a lot of people from all over the world.

Thats why hospitality has allways been an interesting thing to live, because I got to see it from many different angles being an entertainer, tourist guide, event manager, entertainement manager, booking agent, tourist agent, a cook and a server in F&B department.
Basically I did whatever made me happy and learned new skills.

I was living in most of bigger cities of Croatia for some longer periods of time, and traveled all over Europe.
When I m not doing tours I take people to hike on mountains or do a project based work as a Costume designer on movies.

My hobbies are Tribal Fusion Dance as well as fire performing and playing music.
I play hand pan (mostly known as hang drum), african djembe and basically anything that makes a rythm ;)
I am currently learning lyra acrobatics (airhoop).

I love to learn languages and Portugese is my favourite one because of the beautifull fonetics.

My education background is a masters degree in Costume and Fashion Design, but I also finished Interior design Faculty and I am a licensed Tourist and Hiking Guide.
I have lots of experience in working with children and in many different types of creative projects.

I love to create experience for other people and myself, because life is a collection of those bright happy moments of seeing a new place or meeting another beautifull soul or smelling a fresh forest breeze from some mountain peek, where you get to feel greatfull to be alive.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Even without this platform I ve had people from all over the world visit my small town, and the experience of knowing a new person from another country with different culture and background, wether you are the host or a guest, it is the experience and special connections with people that makes us better as a person.
