About Me

In love with languages, literature and Ljubljana.

I’m currently travelling the world. I tried that once before, I started in February 2020, but I didn’t get very far … after 6 weeks all the borders closed and I had to go back home.

Second time’s the charm! I started off in February 2023 with 6 weeks of Europe, followed by 6 months in South East Asia and 1,5 years in Aotearoa. Just arrived in Australia for my final working holiday.

When travelling I feel most comfortable when I’m surrounded by nature. I love hiking and finding those good viewpoints and I’m always on the look-out for the best sunset spots.

I enjoy meeting new people and having unexpected adventures together. I don’t like to plan ahead too much, because that would limit the possibility of those spontaneous moments.

When I’m alone, I like to read a good book (preferably from a place with a nice view) or to do some writing. Solo traveling often gets my mind racing a hundred miles per hour, so it helps to write down some of the thoughts and impressions.

If you stumble upon my profile and feel like reaching out, please do!

Safe travels everyone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it always makes a travel experience all the more rewarding when you can meet amazing new people.
Couchsurfing is a great way to experience the kindness and hospitality of people; I'm always extremely grateful when people open their homes to me, and I hope to do the same for others as soon as I have a place of my own.
