About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel and meet great people, exchange experiences

ABOUT ME

Love to ride bike, whether it's going to work, town or trip. I also love:

wandering. (Some may call it exploring or travelling.) Whether it's mountains, hills, seashores (on Adriatic it's more rock climbing than normal walking), villages, downtown or suburbs.. That includes travelling to foreign countries, but excludes tourism.

hanging out with friends. Home, bar or nature, whatever. I'm reliable and trustworthy, and that's something I find very important with others as well.

cooking. It's fun. I always cook from scratch, often with ingredients I grow my own or collect in nature.

languages. Love speaking foreign languages, and love to observe differences between languages. In some way, language (grammar) defines your way of thinking, the same as climate or education.

movies. Love to watch a good movie.

art. It intrigues and inspires me. Also love to make art. But i hate collecting art or questions like 'what is art?'. If it's presented or juxtaposed in a way that you feel some sensation or you start to make questions you didn't before, than that's art. For you. It's not universal feeling.
