About Me

I'm an open minded, outgoing Serbian girl who is very interested in philosophy and art. Currently I am studying philosophy in Novi Sad. One of the happenings in my life that dhaped me was volunteering in Germany, where I was working with refugees from all over the globe. It has shown me how different can people live. I think It is so important to see that and that's why I love couchsurfing.
As Žižek said, let's not try to see the familiarity in a stranger, since that is impossible and we should stay different, let's rather acknowledge the stranger in ourselves and our own habits and lives. That will bring us closer.
I aspire to help and work in human rights sector. I love yoga, painting, writing, analyzing different topics and learning new skills. I think I am very flexible, independent and energetic. :)
