We're a couple living together. We usually travel together and now we'll host together so we decided to have a common profile. Anja is 28 and Urša is 42 years old. We're both vegan.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is a great way to actually meet locals and learn about the place you're visiting first hand. We've met amazing people couchsurfing and it has enriched our travellings, so we want to continue to travel in this way.

Interests

Anja: I like reading, watching series, knitting and crocheting. I occasionally write short stories and poems. I enjoy lonely forest walks. Sometimes I like to go out but usually I prefer just a nice conversation and a beer. I enjoy learning new things from others or by myself. I occasionally like different types of art.

Urša: I like taking long walks in nature, preferably by water (but not uphill). My passion are orchids - I'm finishing up my orchidarium and can barely resist buying new orchids every time I see them. But I like the special ones not the ordinary ones you can buy in any flower shop ;) I prefer to listen to the stories rather than read.
