Overview
About Me
I studied computer science and through it, became involved in many volunteer student projects as part of different student organizations. This lead me to an interest in soft-skills (things like public speaking, creative thinking, storytelling).
In 2011 I became a soft-skill trainer, which allowed me to travel all of Europe on conferences and student events. Through it I met many new people, and loads of good friends.
I also helped organize TEDxUniversityofLjubljana with some other friends.
Recently I started doing stand-up comedy, which I am quite passionate about. I love making people laugh and stand-up allows me to follow my dream.
I am incredibly passionate about reading, and not a month goes by that I don't read a book or two or three and find 10 more to put on my already infinitely long list.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because meeting new people and travelling are a big thing in my life.
I like socializing and hearing other people's opinions about life and its strangeness.

Music, Movies, and Books
Thinking - fast and slow.
The willpower instinct.

Games people play.
Hyperthinking.
Tony Buzan - Speed reading.
Inception, Shawshank, Godfather, The man from earth, Midnight in Paris.
My taste in music is strange... I like all types of music, but not all songs from each type. Nor do I like each song from an artist, or an event or anything like that.
Some songs I just like and other I just don't...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I organized the largest student educational event in the country, with a great team of volunteers.
Teach, Learn, Share
A brain is an atom's way of analysing itself.
The quality of one's life is directly correlated with the amount of uncomfortable conversations he or she is willing to have.
What I Can Share with Hosts
An interesting conversation, new ideas, a relaxed attitude and maybe a gift from Slovenia :)
