About Me

Huh :) I am a positive, open-minded person. An eternal optimist. Interested in many things. Maybe with a lack of knowledge in some fields, but willing to learn.

Love to travel around as probably just about anyone else around here. Love listening to music, dancing around the kitchen while making breakfast, chilling, having long (but sometimes meaningless) conversations about just about anything, strolling around and catching some sun, enjoying the day, being positive. A friend would say "don't stress" and I like to follow the advice, life's too short for that.

Unfortunately NOT HOSTING much CURRENTLY due to unsuited work schedule. Will change this once I'm able to offer you more than just house keys.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A curious creature, always happy to meet new people, getting new perspectives on life. It's always more fun than staying in a hotel, is it not? :)

Interests

Wanted to travel the world since I was a kid, but didn't get much further than to Morocco by now. I like to snowboard and surf, started some hiking lately and absolutely love it, currently into climbing, played tons of table tennis when I was a kid (can teach you some), would like to try out kite surfing and do some wakeboarding sometimes soon.

On the other hand, I do read some books every now and then (definitely take too little time for that), enjoy theater, ballet, love watching films, get hooked on series quite fast, can't go a day without music in my ears.

Music, Movies, and Books

Depends on the mood. From rock, jazz, ska, reggae, dnb to chillout, minimal, electro, indie ... as long it's goood and I haven't heard it on the radio for the gazzilonth time in the same day already.
Always love to go to a good gig, whether in a small bar or stadium-size. Last few: Foo fighters, Xavier Rudd, Caribou, Flogging Molly.

Laughed the most while reading Douglas Adams - The Hitchhiker´s Guide to the Galaxy. Wanted to go to Colombia since I've read sth by Marquez. I like Murakami's style. Enjoy poetry but mostly read slovene. Should read more, but oh well.

Filmwise I like Xavier Dolan, Mike Leigh, Tarantino, Kiarostami, Miyazaki's cartoons and the like. Some of the movies I thought were good and pop to my head right now: Le Havre by Kaurismaki, Happy go lucky, My neighbour Totoro, Les amours imaginaires, Wild at heart, Pulp fiction, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels ... Tons of them unfortunately get stuck on my bucket-list.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's not exactly swimming with sharks but it did feel great anyhow - surfing while the sun was setting a couple of days in a row; watching sunrise at 2500 m above the sea level before climbing Slovenia's highest peak.
