I left Croatia when I was 18, having received an art school scholarship in the States, lived many different places after my return to Europe,mostly Barcelona.
I'm vegetarian and lapsed vegan,since 20 years. Done a lot of activism,cooked with Food not Bombs and mobile kitchens for many years. Now mostly doing silkscreened concert posters...here are some examples:

I love exploring new cities and travelling in nature.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Having travelled extensively, countless times I relied on hospitality and generosity of others,as well as hosted many travellers in the places where I lived. I'm drawing a poster right now,so a bit busy but will have time to show you around. You can also just drop off your gear at my place,and go exploring by yourself.
Being vegetarian,this is also the food I will make.for you. Looking forward to meet travellers who are also backpackers, hitchhikers,adventurers...
