Hi there :) My name is Saimir and I am from Saranda. I am graduated in Law but I work in tourism as property manager. Before that, i was working in a NGO as local coordinator of European volunteers EVS in Tirana. I am social and quite open minded person... at least this is what the others told me...if they lied to me than i lie to you :D I started with traveling abroad in the beginning of 2011 and is so amazing that i don't want to stop. I like playing football,swimming and walking.I'm not smoking...actually i never tried a cigarette in my life.I love parties and don't like alcohol...but alcohol likes me so i can't refuse :P I like history and politics and i want to learn more through meeting people from different cultures :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Mostly I hosted people when I was living in Tirana and for the moment I am showing the city to the travelers when i can't host...The beautiful part is that showing to other Couchsurfers the city i vsit places that i didn't visit before like the Old Mosque in the center of Tirana and the National Museum (yea shame on me that i didn't visited them before)I organized and participated in the CS meetings in Tirana for 4 years and have been at the 12th Balkan Mafia Meeting :P (Check Balkan Mafia group... is fun :D )
