About Me

CURRENT MISSION
My mission is simple - I want to enrich my poor experience. The truth is that I haven't travelled a lot so I want to change that sad fact about my life.
Why do I want to travel? That one is simple, as well - I want to meet interesting and different people and to learn about other cultures and ways of living (I was a student of anthropology for a short period so the answer, for those who know me, is predictable). I want to see beautiful places, as well, I am lunatic for nature and beautiful places (lived my life on an almost deserted island where I was used to be alone in nature, I mean, she is, indeed, one of my best friends). Once again, I'm really interested in that thing about cultures, I mean, I really want to feel the core (the essence) of every culture. Because of that I don't want to travel with agencies, with tour guides, don't want just to walk around and see beautiful buildings (of course i want to see them and to learn about them, but that is not the main point) I want to go in the local pubs and to meet locals and to feel how they breath, how they think, how they make jokes, what do they love, etc.
I also think that spreading my horizons in that social way will help me in my professional life one day.

Music, Movies, and Books

Hate these questions.
But a man got to do what a man got to do.
Music: I like everything that is approved by my ears. When rhythm, melody and lyrics make a combination that make me feel groovy, extremely sad, happy or melancholic I can say I like. So, the main thing is that the music is connected with my emotions, more than with my cognition. Of course, as I like poetry I do care about lyrics, but emotions have priority.
Ok, now of real: I like old rock, blues, reggae, (manouch) jazz, gypsy punk, swing, funk, etc.

Movies: one of my favorites are Cidade de Deus, Mommy and Les Amoures Imaginaires (Xavier Dolan), ok I don't know, I like a lot of them but the main thing about me and movies is that I am not that much familiar with directors and actors, I just like to watch good movies :)
(I mentioned that thing because i noticed that recently it has become like a trend to be a movie connoisseur)

Books: my favorite is definitely One Hundred Year of Solitude. I like classics but also I like books with insular tematic (Croatian writers mostly), historical with romantic line, etc. I like books punto.

I did it! Yes.

Countries I’ve Visited
