About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore and absorb the world around me.

ABOUT ME

Life is all about good or bad experiences, so i'm trying to take it all. I get inspired by new destinations and observing people, give me more.

I'd describe myself as a bookworm and open-minded philosopher.

PHILOSOPHY

Merak - serbian word for enjoying simple little things like apple picked from the tree, or coffee in the morning.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I go to social events, drink coffee, beer, and can show you around :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just a beginner

Interests

I'm collecting rare or old books, there is something about it. My reading interests are philosophy, religion, psychology. I also love watching dramas (scandinavian drama is something!), and listening to what my mood tells me, usually electro, indie, jazz, sometimes classical music. I love doing yoga. I enjoy open learning, self-study.
