Hello!
My name is Sonja. I am an architect and culture manager, currently working in a marketing agency.

I was born in Serbia, and spent two years living in Scotland, in a town called Aberdeen. Where I learned to speak english, and developed a fond connection to nature and the ocean.

I love spending time in nature, hiking, camping, and climbing. For me, it is necessary to take time during the week to get out of the busy town and reconnect to nature.

Traveling has always been an important aspect of my life, and has had an impact on shaping my views and interests. Many people that I have met during travels, have had an important impact on my journey of self discovery.

Besides traveling and weekend trips in nature, I spend my free time in dance classes - Lindy hop, as well as yoga classes. I enjoy being creative, and have recently taken on weaving, which I am really enjoying, and hope to become more skilled at in the future.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best thing about travelling is getting to meet new people with different backstories and learn from them and with them. I feel like this platform gives you the opportunity to connect with interesting outgoing people seeking for new experiences.
