My guests will sleep in a couch in a living room. Sometimes I might stay longer during the night to work on a computer, but I am very quiet, shouldn't be a problem if typing on a keyboard doesn't wake you up :)

I can host in CHICAGO, not in my home town, so don't send requests for Nish, Serbia, only for Chicago (until July 1st because then I am going to travel myself).

Also me and my gf are open for meeting people, coffee or a walk around the city (I am still new here and ready to explore), so if you are in Chicago or plan to travel near or around Chicago, let me know, I might join you for a few days/weeks trip :)

Personal Description

I prefer to tell people about myself in person, but here is some facts about me. I study geography, one more exam to finish. I am 28 years old crazy traveler, always ready for action, going out, making people laugh with my jokes :)) I try to travel as much as I can.

I had amazing traveling season in 2010. I made 3 trips - all in total, 4 months in 2010. and I am very happy about that because I had great time and met very nice people.

In 2011. also 3 trips (Central Europe, Eastern Europe and Southeast Asia) all together 4 and a half months.

Now, 2012. I am in the USA, staying in Chicago until July when I plan to start traveling again.

My FaceBook account. Sometimes it's easier and faster for communication.

Take a look on some of my videos to see what I do in free time:

Azucar Moreno feat. Bon Appetit Men - Bandido(s) It's a must to see this video ;)
Morning at Fabio's We made a parody about coffee bars
Serbus Zagreb - Crazy dancing around city of Zagreb
This is Sparta and This is Sparta 2
Debil (Moron) Movie - Killing movie :) A group of couch surfers killed each other on different ways :)
Magarence Njako - I am singing some children song on a retarded way :) and became famous over here because of this video :)

Be good, don't be evil. Love people around you, don't hate them.

I will quote one of people I met on CS:
"I'm pretty good at travelling on a minimum budget, particularly as my favourite method of travel is hitch-hiking. Not only is it generally the cheapest way to go, but it means you get to meet interesting people, and see things you wouldn't otherwise get to see. It makes the journey just as important as the arriving, and gives you a completely different perspective from what you get when you just get on some train or bus and just twiddle your thumbs and wait to arrive at your destination." by Nomad Kat

One Amazing Thing I've Seen or Done

Everything I did is amazing :)

What do these numbers mean?

This summary is not a replacement for reading references; it's a quick summary to help you get started. At a glance, you can see how many references a member has, and how many of them are positive, neutral, and negative.

In the second line, you'll see how many references came from people who hosted this member, surfed with them, and traveled with them. These numbers won't always add up to the total: some references are not categorized, and some may be categorized as more than one thing.

When viewing this summary, don't jump to conclusions! Things that are negative for one person may be positive for another, and vice versa. It's important to read references carefully and evaluate what that information means to you.
