About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to have the time of my life! :)

ABOUT ME

Let's see...I'm a laid back female from Europe, born and raised in Serbia, came to states as an aupair (live-in babysitter...that's one of the reasons why I'm only surfing couches...for now). Love working with kids, I volunteer at Children's hospital at UCSF, always looking for adventure, and doing stuff that makes me happy! When I got here I instantly fell in love with the OCEAN so besides working and volunteering I try to spend as much of my free time as I can either watching waves or trying to catch one! :)
I can say I'm a bit of an adrenalin junky, adventurer, I just love meeting random people, love socializing...damn I just love to love!!! :D

PHILOSOPHY

"Love, Peace, Unity"!!! Or Love, laugh, live, enjoy? :) No I'm not high (I don't even smoke that much) I do have my dark moments of depression here an there! lol :)

No wait I did that already! But I guess I easily get hooked on any kind of surfing! lol :P
