I'm off to Canada so I am not able to host any more..too bad!! But I hope some time in the future I might be able to host you in Canada!! Still, ask freely about any info on Croatia! Will be glad to help. In the meantime, I'll gladly meet up with travelers in TO on weekends or sometimes weekdays and go for a drink or coffee...maybe even show around a little, though I'm new here myself...

Personal Description


Croatian-born, Canadian-married, World-happy.

CouchSurfing Experience

Awesome so far! Loved all my guests and hosts! Travelers are a special kind of people

Interests

Bible, spirituality.I LOVE music and animals.. LOVE. Can't stand a day without them. Actually, I always have to be around both of them. I like hiking..spending a day in the nature... I like big cities..seeing life ..people and places.. traveling is what I want to do for the rest of my life....I love movies..I used to read a lot more then I do these days..I love the feeling that I get when I hear a new song from an artist I didn't know about and I stop and think: how could I have lived without this song till now? it's a nice feeling knowing a masterpiece entered my life ...

Philosophy

'if I can't be my own, I feel better dead'

Music, Movies, Books

loads and loads and loads of everything!! I'm a true rock chick deep down though, love old and new rock..my all time ever fav band whose HUGE fan I will always be is Pearl Jam though!! Love non-fiction, anything that will help me learn about myself and others..And yesss..I LOVE movies!! Seen a lot but any recommendation is good...

Types of People I enjoy

easy-going, respectful, tolerant people....if you're not an animal lover you won't get along with me...dreamers...funny people and lonely people....I guess like people who talk a lot cause I really enjoy listening...

Teach, Learn, Share

I am learning how to snowboard and with it, how to lose fear of speed and falling. I'd love to learn that. If you need, I know some kids' crafts. haha

One Amazing Thing I've Seen or Done

midnight Sun has been a pretty special sight..I'll always remember that...and what I did? I guess for me it was amazing to pass next to a moose on a hiking trail cause I was freaking scared of it

Opinion on the CouchSurfing.com Project

words can't describe it...it's just....awesome? amazing? perfect? great? nice? it's all that...hope it lasts forever

Locations Traveled

TRAVELED: Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Norway, Serbia and Montenegro, Slovenia, Sweden, United States

i've been thinking how to write this reference but it's just so hard. i consider Tina my soul mate, it scares me sometimes how similar we are. so writing a positive reference would be like...praising myself i guess. it just doesn't seem right.

What a ray of light!! Tina is so easygoing, she stayed with me and my son for a very short night. Tina, you are welcome anytime you need to stay. CS meetings, dancing or just hanging is great. It was a pleasure to have you over and luggage shop, hehehe. I will think of you everytime i pack :p Tina is a great guest or chat friend. I have had many a laughs with her. If you have a chance to host this girl do it, do it, do it...did i make myself clear that i am a fan of hers?

Wicked coolness! I've been lucky enough to hang out with Tina on several occasions! She is a great guest - very respectful and gracious... and she also has this great twinkle in her eye that reflects Tina's love of life and fun! She is great energy and if you have the change to meet her, you'd be a sucka' if you passed it up!!! I'm very happy to have Tina as a friend in my life!! Cuz she's the shit. :D

Everything rolled into one! Like I mentioned before, Tina is everything rolled into one, someone you never wanna miss out as a friend! But no... she is not just a friend, she is like a family to me. Really one of the best thing that happened to me during my trip is knowing a perfect family like hers still exist and I feel so proud and honoured to even have the chance to be part of it.. even thou its only for a short period and yeah, I dun feel left out coz im "yellow"!! LOL.. Summary, Tina = A lovely, crazy Biatch who shines on the external and sparkle from the internal.. misses you so so much now T.. no one to sing Lpool songs with on the street, no one to cycle with, no one to dance on the couch with and no one to do all the hitchhiking job for me!! Domi is definitely right in wat she said.. if im a man or lesbian, I marry this gal for sure! Love ya Tina!!!!!

Perfect host! Kristina is hard to describe with words. She is just such a great person. So easy to talk, so kind, so down to earth and extremely funny. I'm usually a bit shy with new people, but with her i felt like knowing her for years. I don't think you'll ever meet a better person and host than Kristina.

One Cool Chiquita. Tina has been a chat friend for like a century. We finally got to meet and surf together - she's exactly as she is in chat!
She's very fun, laid back easy to get along with - beautiful inside and out!

I can't wait for her to get her ass to Montreal. Hopefully during the next two years that she's in Canada we'll have lots of opportunity to hang out with eachother.

Kristina Rocks! Kristina (Tina) and her family took me in as their guest for two full days in October. Their hospitality and generosity was overwhelming, far exceeding anything I could have expected. I will remember them always as one of the great highlites I've been fortunate enough to experience. I Look forward to seeing you and your family again!

welcome. Tina is a fun girl. We let her stay with us for a night while she was checking out Toronto. We had great time. She laughs a lot and is easy to be around. I hope we will be hanging out more, since now she is so close. Let me know next time you are in town, lets hook up for coffee or vodka. ;)

So much more. This girl is the real deal!! What a great experience to have met Tina. She appears quiet and timid but there's so much more there that she's not letting out. I just know it! Looking forward to seeing you again some time ;)
