About Me

Young engineer from Slovenia (Ljubljana) eager to see as much of the world as I can and share memorable moments with total strangers that can profoundly impact our lives.
I like whistling, getting stuck in the weird part of Youtube, clean sheet days, making funny faces in the mirror, visiting my grandmother and making the best out of an unexpected situation.

**I've recently moved to a smaller studio apartment and can for the time being host only one person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy meeting new people from all other the world by hosting or surfing.

Interests

I'm an outdoorsy person, spending the time outside makes me feel alive and prevents me to lose connection to myself due to increasing speed of modern life. I also enjoy other little micro-moments of happiness, like making fresh bread, fermenting food, reading a book, sharing a drink with friends, playing instruments, building a bonfire or petting animals. Last but not least I like to challenge myself, both mentally and physically.
