More information about

Mirko Trajanovski

Mirko is a young man from Skopje. He has been a journalist for 10 years and when he’s not glued to the computer screen, he likes to listen to retro music and watch new series. If he was forced to choose a favourite film director or a writer his choice would probably be Woody Allen and Oscar Wilde. He’s not very sporty but enjoys cycling, though the tour usually finishes with cold beer and hot kebabs. Mirko has been proposed for president of the condo board twice so far, but has not managed to win the elections twice so far… And he likes to travel but then again, who doesn’t?
