My name is Zala and I am 24 years old. I studied primary teaching, but right now I am in the process of figuring out what I really want to do in my life. I am dreaming about opening a dog grooming salon 😁

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel and because I am young, broke student I have to do it on a budget ;) I would also love to experience the place from local's perspective, meet new people and friends from all over the world.

Interests

Most of my free time I try to spend hanging out with my friends, going for walks with my dog and in the winter/Christmas time I usually try and learn some new crafts. I tried embroidery, making macrame, weaving, knitting... I also used to make traditional Slovenian lace when I was younger.
As a true Slovenian I like to go hiking😋 I also love camping 😁

Music, Movies, and Books

I like different kinds of music. It really depends on my mood... One of my favourite bands is definitely Alt-j, but lately I've been into Post Malone too haha.. I don't know I also like music from the 80's and 90's... I'm really nostalgic person, even though I haven't lived in the 80's, but I can feel it!! 😂

My favourite writer right now is Haruki Murakami. I like Harry Potter.

I haven't been watching a lot of movies lately. I like almost every movie Leo DiCaprio is in. My favourite movie I've recently watched is Bohemian Rhapsody!! (almost cried the entire time).
But I also love watching tv series. My all time favourite is Breaking bad. I also really like Stranger things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When my friends and I were in Amsterdam we stayed in some sort of camp a little bit outside the city. The first night we arrived after the office had already been closed, so the cabin we booked should've been unlocked. And of course it wasn't. So we had to break in and crawl through the window to get inside. The owner got us free shower and coffee tokens the next morning. We ended up with a good story, free shower and coffee, so we were happy. (we also got bed bugs haha - that was not fun)

Went on work and travel program in USA and spent summer working in New Hampshire and then roadtripped west coast
