Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Run a marathon. Make piece with not being special. Make piece with working for the next 40 years. Make piece with the system.
ABOUT ME
I am friendly, open-minded, and accept others the way they are, but request to be accepted the way I am in return.
Also, I'm very altruistic and I love all the people. Which in reality means I have an ego and a sense of greatness to feed, so I do good things so I can feel better about myself. And it actually works.
My friends tend to point out my "dry sense of humour", but I don't mean anything bad with it - it's just the way I perceive humour :)
PHILOSOPHY
There is nothing worth enough to be achieved through war or violence
Success is the ability to go through failures with no loss of enthusiasm.
Be the best you that you can possibly be. Improve what you can, make piece with what you can't. Love yourself, and then you will love others as well. Along with their flaws.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Offer a couch, maybe sometimes surf some as well
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Had more than a few surfers, both in Nurnberg and Zagreb, made some great friends, and am generally thrilled with the experience. Also, in September 2011 I have done my first surfing in Torino, and it was a good experience also.
Interests
Cooking, travelling, sports, psychology, religion, partying, even working sometimes. Dancing is also a new addition to the list.

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies - movies I like best are those made up by excellent characters and dialogues, rather than an intriguing story. Although, I don't mind the latter either.
Books: G.G Marquez, particularly 100 years of solitude, then Catch 22 (Heller), Lord of the rings (good childhood memories), A. de Melo and Richard Dawkins for something with deeper meaning.
Music - Ska, punk, rock, jazz, blues.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have watched the Lord of the rings trilogy without a peeing break
The tunnel from an aeroplane between a very thick fog on the ground and the clouds in the sky.
Teach, Learn, Share
The only way to happiness in life is the have a constant flow of goals to achieve.
Don't mind the failures though - the moment in your life that might seem the worst ever, might just turn out to be the best thing that has ever happened to you.
And never, ever, take failures personally. Learn from them, but don't let them harm who you really are and your belief that who you are is good enough.
