I'm Matija, 31 year old chemist from Croatia. I love science and love to volunteer. This year I intend to travel a lot and hope to find a new environment where I can learn new things and live a different life than at home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel and explore different countries. I don't want to spend a lot of money so I'm always searching for economic solutions when I travel. A friend of mine recommended I start using couch surfing when I travel. I'm quite new in the world of couch surfing. I hope to find new acquaintances and friend while couch surfing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last year I went skydiving but I'm a bit afraid of heights.

Teach, Learn, Share

I volunteer in my hometown for the organisation CeZaM (Youth center Čakovec).
I tutor kids in mathematics and chemistry. I'm always interested in learning new things. I am currently learning russian language and programming in python and I have a garden where I grow a lot of vegetables and fruits. Sharing experience and learning from others is something I enjoy doing a lot.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If I can help in some way then I'll do what I can.
