About Me

Greetings and salutations!

I'm just a random regular-Joe guy.

From the small capital of small Croatia, Zagreb! Moved to countryside, a small town of Pazin, in a beautiful part of Croatia, Istria.

I live for traveling and moving around, by any means.
Usually traveling on my motorcycle, by foot - hiking in mountains, cycling or road tripping by car. Love to explore hidden parts of beautiful places and cities. And sometimes even meet people.

PHILOSOPHY

People who are always happy are either with a malfunctioned mental set or are just lying.
Or in love, which classifies them in both categories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

So far hosted just wonderful people. Every person has a great story, if you know how to listen and ask. It expands the horizons, because when I'm not traveling, travel then comes to me.

Interests

Mostly traveling and above all traveling with motorcycle.

Six days a week I'm a tour guide and a regular daydreamer.
During weekends, spending time mountaneering, running and cycling.

Popular physics, cosmology and psychology.

Music, Movies, and Books

TV comedy shows from Larry David and Ricky Gervais. Sometimes dramatical, like House of cards or Stranger things.
Cult movies, anime series and movies from Miyazaki-san.
Books, lately about popular physics , psychology, AI (Max Tegmark) and some old fashioned sci-fi.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Motorcycle solo trip to Caucasus in 2014. Meditating in Caucasius mountains, with a spectacular view at Tsminda Sameda monastery, Kazbegi mountain peak, Stepantsminda village and cows chewing grass 10 m from me.

One year RTW trip 2017/2018, using various means of transport. The first part of the trip was a motorcycle journey from Croatia to Mongolia over all the Central Asian *stans, which was amazing. Especially Pamir mountains in Tajikistan.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A big cosy couch, kitchen and some spare time for talking and discussing deep and not so deep subjects with guests.

If time and weather are in good pattern, then a hike or a cycling tour in Istrian hills, for those of adventureous spirit.
