Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I host, travel, spread idea of CouchSurfing. I like to meet all kind of people. Today or tomorrow, when you come to Serbia or if I am in your city, let me know, and we can go out for a coffee, walk through the city, party,... COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I hosted more than 250 travelers from all parts of the world and being hosted more than 350 times while traveling. I lost counting long time ago, so the number is even bigger by now. I've been to many CS meetings around the world and met many great people with whom I am still friends nowadays. For me, CS is one of the best things that ever happened to me.
Muzyka, filmy i książki
Electronic/instrumental music: Jean Michel Jarre, Yello, Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, Disco '80, Art of Noise, Klaus Schulze, Music Instructor, Robert Miles, Sanja Ilic and Balkanika, etc. I am a big fan of movies and I watched a couple thousands of movies. I like thrillers. My favorite movie since I was a kid is "Back to the Future", even I watched much better movies since then.

Try to visit one of the summer music festivals in Serbia - Guča or EXIT. I strongly recommend the Guča Trumpet Festival in mid-August, because it's the kind of event you won’t find anywhere else. Do I like it? Not really. But I’ve been there twice, and I had fun. Many foreigners who’ve been there told me they loved it - it’s a unique experience, especially for someone who's not from the Balkans. 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
Co mogę zaoferować Hostom
Lots of fun, stories from my trips, many advice how to enter for free in museums, palaces, concerts and save lots of money while traveling. I hitchhiked in almost all countries I've been to, so I can also help beginners with hitchhiking.
