Born and raised in Croatia, I moved to Vancouver, BC in 2012 and got a job where I met my lovely girlfriend. We moved to Medicine Hat, AB two years ago and are in the process of buying a house. We both love animals so recently we adopted young and goofy cat named, Mildred, who is staring at you in my profile picture. Now that your are done checking Mildred out, I can tell you that I'm very close with my family so every year I make an effort of visiting them back home in Croatia. Anyone who has visited Croatia knows how beautiful it is and how almost all the socializing revolves around a lot of good food so naturally I love food and I love talking about it. I've been working hard for last 7 years to get where I am so creating this profile is my attempt to create a healthy balance between work and fun. I'm looking forward to experiencing other cultures and visiting new places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Like almost everyone else here, I would love to travel more and couchsurfing is the perfect tool that helps us toot around. The best part about this whole system is meeting authentic, refreshing and oftentimes like minded people and potentially making friends along the way. Meeting new people and receiving generosity is great but returning the favor and potentially making friends is even better.
