CURRENT MISSION

Discovering Paris...

ABOUT ME

I am a fresh architecture graduate, but still not feeling ready for starting a serious grown-up life, so I decided to do another master (on architectural heritage), I got a scholarship and - voilà - here I am in Paris. (Obviously, I am not a genuine Parisian - I come from a small town in Bosnia. For the past six years I lived in Belgrade (I adore that city) and I also spent a year in Rome (for Erasmus; I loved Rome as well:)).
I am also a big fan of foreign languages and of all kinds of adventures and I am a huge Argentinian tango lover. :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting, "guesting", meeting other couchsurfers, spreading the word about cs..

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My cs experience ranges from perfect (a couchsurfer became one of my best friends) to not too bad (a couchsurfer was ok but there just wasn't the link between us)). So couchsurfing is "like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're gonna get." :)

Interests

I have two big passions - tango and languages. Than, of course - architecture. And than so many many things I love - spending time in the nature, music, films, dancing, swimming, eating...

Dancing tango.

Teach, Learn, Share

Hmm, you could give me some tips on how to swim butterfly style. :) And some interesting new idioms and expressions in any language are always more than welcome. Or maybe to teach me to make some simple but delicious meal. Oh, and some tips on photography, as I am beginning to descover it. And yeah of course, you can teach me anything about your city/country, your customs, history, art etc... Or whatever comes into your mind. :)
On the other hand, I can teach you some basic tango steps or maybe some Serbian/French/Italian/Spanish/English.
