About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Sing, travel, show the joy to the World :-)

ABOUT ME

Greets from one happy person, from a little town in Serbia. I adore singing, dancing and trying out new things.
I also play the guitar a bit, but I prefer to say that people who have chosen to be singers can never learn to play the guitar so good. Just to comfort myself. xD

I studied German, because I absolutely adore the language&culture. I also study a bit of the Japanese language and culture, which is also fascinating!

As for music, I sing in a Gospel Choir. That kind of music just brings the best vibes out of a person.
But besides that, I like rnr, metal and country.
My great passion is Serbian ethno, too. I learned to sing it when I was a kind.

My life motto is taken from Sandi Thom's song: "My heart is just a beat-box with a song of my life". Life means nothing without music.

PHILOSOPHY

Being a good person and not wishing for more than we could ever possibly achieve is the key to happiness. And love, nothing comes without love.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am going through some really turbulent phase of my life, so I won't be hosting for some time in the future - I am truly sorry. But I can show you round Belgrade when I have the time.

I can participate in donating my positive energy to people who may be my hosts or/and co-travelers. Respect of other way of life and culture is very important to me, so I latently expect from the people whom I meet to respect my personality like I respect theirs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've said the sentence: "This is the best thing I've done in my whole life" a lot of times during the past couple of years. The best of may be:

1. Eating Twix and drinking Cherry Coke beneath Notre Dame in Paris.
2. Dancing til the early morning hours to my favorite music (this happened more than once ofc.).
3. Making a cake that is edible!
4. Seeing Mt.Fuji out of the plane!

Teach, Learn, Share

I think when two people meet, the things they learn from each other and about themselves come unconsciously.

I also think that when we meet people who differ from us, we don't learn about them, but more about our own personality.
