ABOUT ME

I come from a small town near Ljubljana, but currently, I'm based in Berlin. I'm open-minded, I like meeting people from all over the world and learn about different cultures. I'm interested in everything related to Spain and Latin America, I love theatre, books, hiking and dancing.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to follow the philosophy of the movie Yes man! and I think that everything happens for a reason.
