About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Surviving.

ABOUT ME

Not too complicated.

PHILOSOPHY

The Silver Rule, the common sense, and
the Allmighty Ducttape, that fixes anything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Maybe the mankind deserves to survive the apocalypse. :)
Seriously, I think, there are people of value, and we are just passing those people without really getting to know them. Maybe there are a plenty of those kind of moments, and we could get more chance recognize them, or use them with this opportunity.
And:
- Show my city to others.
- Get acquinted with other points of wiew, and new experiences...
- And a couch, occasionally, of course. :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only once, in Stockholm; and if those of my friends count, who are members, then in Belgrade as well.

But I participated in several volutray workcamps, long term voluntary programs, and I met there very loveable, nice, friendly, and cool people, and this experience helped me to understand other people - and myself a little more, as well.
