About Me

Hello fellow travelers. I am a person of many interests and ideas, quite open to all the new things the world might bring me. A very restless soul in a constant search of adventure and challenge.

I was not born in the forest, but I got there as fast as I could.

While I am at home, I am working as a self employed gardener and sometimes as a pyrotechnic, I always try to have as much free time as possible, because that is the only way for me to stay sane.

While I am travelling, I want to see everything your countries have to offer, from the most beautiful forests, rivers, mountains to the craziest parties. Please show me those hidden gems that only locals know of!

Currently back in Rijeka and I'll probably stay here for a while. Would love to hang out with travellers, so I don't forget the joys of travelling!

Although I often forget about it, I will try to be more active on the app, but you can feel free to contact me on whatsapp or viber (+385915857178) for a faster answer.

I prefer last minute arrangements because I have no organizational skills.

I am a collector of weird stuff so if you want to, I will always accept some cool weird things you might want to get rid off.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have tried couchsurfing while travelling but for some reason, I was never accepted. Now that i have returned home, I wanted to try and help out anyone that finds themselves in a similar situation. Although I didn't have much luck with CS, I was treated by the good people all around Europe, so now I feel like I have a karmic debt to repay in kindness.

Interests

My biggest interests would be travelling, nature and freedom. You can usually find me around the forests and mountains, searching for some edible plants or some cool rocks, trying to befriend wild animals or just hammocking on some beach. I also enjoy going to festivals and parties.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music. Rap is my favourite genre, but I also love rock, blues, jazz, punk. Almost anything goes!

I have read a lot of books, mostly I like fantasies or any book from which I can learn something!
Favourite books would be 'Secret life of plants', 'Art of war' and 'The Alchemist'.

My favourite movie and a big chunk of my comfort zone would definetly be Lord of the rings.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked over fire!

Teach, Learn, Share

Most of my knowledge is based around the plants. I have a good knowledge about domesticated and the wild plants, their needs and their properties, I could teach you a bit. I have travelled a lot and would like to share stories of my adventures as well as hearing yours. I would also like to relearn my forgotten Portuguese.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd be more than willing to help out with some chores, maybe cook something!

At the least I could offer a good conversation and company.
