2007-06-01 16:46:10 i met zoran and elma in april, 2007 when they hosted me and my friend for a couple of nights in sarajevo...
staying at their place was really something special, because all the time i had a feeling like i was in my own home....we ate great food (you must try the pie elma makes:)), talked about a lot of things (esp. rainbow gathering:)) and heard a lot of interesting stories about sarajevo and their own experience of that city...and also got some tips about hitchiking in bosnia:)thanks for everything...

Firstly, Zoran saved us from sleeping outside and cared about us a lot. The discussions were very interesting and all your care..! Thanks soooo much! Best regards for your girlfriend and good luck for you both! :)

2007-01-23 20:13:27 Me and couple of my friend crashed at his place being in Sarajevo while traveling in Balkans.
Zoran or Zuoka (friends call him so) was perfect host. It was pleasure to meet him. We were free to to everything and felt really like back home at his big and cosy house.He made us some vegetarian meal which was quite new thing for me. Zoran calls himself anarchist and he really is in his soul. That's very alternative person. We also had an opportunity to meet his friends and even listen for some live local band. On and on the time in Sarajevo was GREAT. Thank's for you.

2007-01-02 14:52:59 I was his guest with my Spanish friend Marta during our trip to South-East Europe in June 2006.
Oh, I've never met such strange personality. He was great host, we could talk and talk (3 ppl, 3 nationalities, but we could choose from 3 languages - either Czech, English or Spanish), BUT I couldn't get some of his ideas. Maybe after a similar life to his I'd understand. He was deported many times from various countries as he said, but now he can't travel because of the dumb EU restrictions and visa needs. It doesn't look like but Europe is a fortress which is not easy to access from the peripheries and from the outside! I hope this will change once, Zoran.

2006-11-30 11:33:56 Met him through a friend of mine.
He showed us to the art commune Baraka in Sarajevo, where we slept for our stay in Sarajevo, one of the most beautiful cities i've ever layed eyes upon. Not to mention showed us around Sarajevo on a day cycling. He's in touch with the earth and those around him. Thanks zoran..

He is real traveller. He is really know traveller needs. Also he is open, interesting, intelligent and nice phylosopher. I'm sorry I stood there only 1 night. I hope to see him, her wife, her MOTHER (special thanks and respect), and certainly that new traveller again and for sure invite him to Moscow. Спасибо за то, что ты пытаешься улучшить мир.

This guy is LIVING LEGEND OF HC!! The world would be so boring without such nice freaks like Zoran:) When we with the tears in eyes left Zoran, we didnt know what would happen when we had followed his clue in Mostar:). BIG THANKS TO YOU, ELMA AND YOUR MOTHER! Díky za všechno ty stará pako, čekám na tebe v Práglu vole!:)

What a great sort of freak! He's considerably one of the strangest and most interesting people i've met in my travels. You will love him or hate him, personally, total respect, man!

2006-08-23 18:16:50 I met Zoran in Sarajevo, he and his girlfriend hosted us (me and 3 friends of mine) for 3 nights in his flat.
We had a very nice time in Sarajevo, when we arrived a Danish couple, also hc guest opened the door for us, and a Swiss guy came just few hours later. We had interesting chat all together while having breakfast in the huge living room. Zoran seems to be easygoing by hosting people, but has very strict and straight ideas of the world, has incredible stories to tell about his life, counties, war, people and anarchism. Just try to fallow him! Thanks a lot for your hospitality and once if you pass by Budapest drop me a line, you are welcome! Good luck!

2006-08-21 13:16:00 Internet liked us together! Zoran the great grandmaster is also the great, great bike grandmaster. I guess he was intressted in me and Ardalan when we said we were going to his place by bikes....
Once in a while you have this hallllllelujaaa hostings!!! Zox was amazing! A genuine person in his beleives and life style, anarkist he sais. We stayed in Sarajevo for two days and Zoran helped us around - letting us enjoy his city. He spoked about sooooo many kewl things, histories, people he knew and had always something intressting to say. Me and my friend Ardis were also the last guest at his place for a while since he decided not to take more guests for a while, we were lucky in two ways then I guess. Zory is also a real funny guy!!! Am I making you jealous? You should be, but I really hope you meet this guy/thing/alien in some way =))))) Good luck with your little baby and your betting Zorrry!!!

2006-07-22 12:37:05 My girlfriend Emma and I stayed with Zoran (and Elma) at their place in Sarajevo for three nights in late June 2006.
Who is Zoran? ... Is he a man -- a myth -- or just a mysterious HC profile flashing on your computer screen? ... Perhaps all three. But definitely a great host, generous and intelligent, a free spirit if you ever met one. ... Good luck with your house in the countryside!

Zoran is a person you won't easily forget. He has interesting stories and lots of intelligent. He is helpful and always ready to discuss about the poor political systems in the world. And he's not as weird as his profile. :)

2006-06-12 07:49:35 We stayed two nights in Sarajevo with Zoran, Elma and Zoran's mum.
A most hospitable, intelligent and interesting guy, whose company we enjoyed very much. He was always ready to help and even cooked for us. His attitude towards life is quite non-mainstream and I think most of us would have a lot to learn from him.

2006-05-23 00:22:53 I spent two nights at Zoran and Elma's place with my girlfriend ameliek
Don't be afraid by this unusual profile, this guy is not crazy, he's just a warm guy who doesn't like how cops and liberalism want us to be (it might be more complicated but I make it the short way. And isn't he right after all?) Anyway, you'll be well received at Zoran and Elma's place. YOu'll have nice talks, good walks and so on. The only thing you have to do is to give your birth date to Zoran so that he can play the numbers in casino and become a guy who'll never need to work anymore. By the way, did 17 and 12 work, Zoran?

2006-04-26 18:01:37 he is Elma´s boyfriend. I stayed at his house with 2 friends of mine for 3 days.
He´s just my fucking idol! Awesome guy to meet and hang out with. He and Elma make such a nice couple. They made our stay in Sarajevo unforgetable. At their house, you really feel like you´re at home. They´re so talkative and easygoing. I would give my life in order to get 500 people be like them!

2006-04-23 10:47:58 I met him through HC.
He and his wife are exceptional hosts. Being unable to meet me in person, they still made sure that I was provided, sent me ENORMOUS, but very helpful directions, and I enjoyed being with and talking to Zoran's mom. A very interesting and just an amazing person, his mom. I can imagine that, meeting them in person, the experience would be even fuller.

Zoran was an incredible host! He went to great lengths to make sure we were comfortable and having a good time. He helped us explore the city and introduced us to some great friends of his. He is also a wonderful cook and we were always well-fed.

2005-09-30 18:50:00 i was hosted by zoran one day in sarajevo
dive in sarajevo!! it was so different to cycle around in the outskirts of sarajevo with zoran by rain, different from that citytour i had the day before. so, we had fun and good conversations. and finally zoran risked what is to risk to catch the bus i missed - highspeed at night through unknown bosnian country - and i got my bus!! merci, zoran!

When I asked him to host me for sicily tour, he could not host me since he moved another city. He gave some good advice for my tour. Although I did not stay his home , I believe that he is reliable HC memeber.
