About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live, learn ,love make the best out of life. Carpe diem (it's cliché but true).

ABOUT ME

I'm an easygoing and funny person, slightly sarcastic; just a fair mixture of mordacity and irreverence. I'm really calm in general, but when I decide to have fun I do it recklessly (sort of). I think the word that summarizes my way of approaching life is versatility; i like to adapt to different situations and learn about every topic on my way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet fantastic people from all over the world, share all of my experiences and learn from others. What else should life be about?

Interests

Well, of course science is the thing that I enjoy the most, but I would say it encloses the concept of understanding life as a whole. Because of that, I've spent my life diversifying my knowledge to include languages, music, sports and other areas which really help me to identify the delicate nuances of the human spirit.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

well the first that come to my mind are probably: carrying an anaconda in the amazon (that requires like 5 or 6 persons at least) and watching the sunset at the river(amazon). The other was while crossing the border between Slovenia and Croatia, but that's another story...
