Hi, I'm Zoran from Ljubljana. I love figuring out how things work and to share that with people. I'm more of a quiet type (the only reason I know pop songs at a club is because I found covers/remixes), but I enjoy going out too :)
Fluent in German
Fluent in English

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Looking back at the travels I've made up until now, it's clearly the people who made the experiences special. I surely never shed a tear about saying good bye to a monument or a skyscraper. Couchsurfing also seems like place where people deliberately chose to stay open to new people and stories, which resonates with me. If I hadn't made friends outside of my age/language/whatever group, my world would be substantially smaller.
Music, Movies, and Books
Books: - H. Murakami - Toni Morrison m a movie analphabet, educate me :) I really liked Good Will Hunting and the first Matrix movie. Music: Amanda Palmer, Guano Apes, Bach, Tool, Dream Theater, Metallica, Pantera Avishai Cohen, Tigran Hamasyan, Snarky Puppy, Knower. And Fergie.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Spending 6 months in Tübingen on Erasmus exchange without starving or worse and passing my first philosophy exam in German.
Teach, Learn, Share
What I could teach: Learning second languages/ learning in generall, Mindfulness meditation, I speak Slovene, but that's kinda niche playing ukulele or guitar Heck, we could even do some public speaking training :) What I'd love to learn: Vegetarian or vegan cooking Piano Singing
What I Can Share With Hosts
Stories that seem appropriate at the spur of the moment. Some happy, some sad, some meaningful, some absurd. I'm also totally up for karaoke; any time, any not-really-public place, any cringe-worthy song I know I recently rediscovered I can make pretty decent crepes :)
My Interests
Linguistics and computer science are 2 things I want to do for a living, eventually. Lgbtq+/feminist/social issues are important to me, because I believe that my own wellbeing is irreversibly linked with the wellbeing of others. Board games, guitars, ukuleles are just pure fun for me :)
