Important - NOT ZAGREB. :D

I live in village called Stubičke Toplice. Not too far from Zagreb, but you need to drive (cca 45min) or take a bus or train (1-1:30h). More info in "My Home" section.

** I'm very often away, especially during weekends, but if I happen to have time, I might be able to host. **

ABOUT ME:
"After he hatched, little dinosaur wanted to see what the world was like. So off he went!" Said my favorite book growing up. I've spent a fair amount of my early twenties wandering around without much money, exploring new countries by hitchhiking or bicycle touring or combining the two.

As it sometimes goes, after a few years of travelling, I came back home, studied, and am now leading a calm and ordinary life of a software engineer. Recently moved from Zagreb, bought a house with a nice yard in Stubičke Toplice - cute little place with hot springs and nice nature.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

My biggest motive is to meet other hitchhikers, long distance cyclists, dumpsterdivers, squatters and all the crazy travelers.

Interessen

I like to spend my free time in nature: hiking, birdwatching, cycling, swimming and camping. Indoors I like to play (badminton, board games, crushing people in Crash Team Racing), hang out over beer, read, cook and watch Star Trek.

Time permitting, I'd be up for some outdoor adventure, like cycling or hiking or birdwatching. I'm really not into clubbing or night life and would be useless to anyone with those interests.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Everything good that carries something from the artist, when you can feel the life put in art. There's a big difference when something is made with passion and perfection or just as shallow money business.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Accidentally bought a non-refundable airplane ticket to the Azores, and went there. Best mistake ever.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can teach you how to dumpsterdive, hitchhike, travel with no money, maintain a happy bicycle or make a roof out of palm leaves. I could also teach some programming stuff, but the online tools are so great it wouldn't make much sense.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I'd love to take out the old goo and hair from your shower drain! Most people are disgusted by this and I find it fun in a weird way.

I often travel with some board games and love to cook. Depending on what you're into, I'd be very happy to hang out - share beer and stories, play games, go into nature, but am also extremely independent and not spoiled - will be happy with a piece of floor and do not need you to hold my hand.
