CURRENT MISSION

To work my way through the Balkans and to settle down in Ljubljana for six months

ABOUT ME

I got my passion for traveling in an early age. Our parents took us quite often to Portugal, where our grandparents used to spent theirs winters for many years, and to many other destinations too. I always felt quite comfortable staying abroad, so it seemed only natural to continue traveling when I grew up. I did my first backpacking in 2006 with a good friend of mine. We travelled across the Eastern Europe and the Balkans for a month. During that trip I fell in love with the Western Balkans, and I have returned there several times since.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My experiences with couch surfing have only been positive. I have hosted great people who managed to broaden my horizon on several matters, and my hosts have taken me to places where I would have never gone otherwise.
