Meeting me is like talking about the meaning of life in the middle of a Ronny Scott's performance. I like substance and deep conversations but also love aesthetics—music, art, and experiences. Infinitely curious, looking to explore more people and parts of the world.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I have met some wonderful people over the years through living in shared accommodation during my studies. These random encounters sparked wonderful conversations, new insights and shaped how I see the world. Now that I'm taking some time off study and career to "find myself" with some travelling, I'm looking forward to meet locals in different parts of the world to exchange culture, ideas, philosophies and have fun!
Music, Movies, and Books
My taste in music is eclectic, but I probably enjoy Jazz and Classical the most. Favourite books: In Search of Lost Time by Marcel Proust (please read this masterpiece, you won't be disappointed) Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy The Death of Ivan Ilyich by Leo Tolstoy Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari First Love by Ivan Turgenev A Promised Land by Barack Obama
Teach, Learn, Share
I'd love to hear more about what you've learned about the world. Whether it's culture, (in)formal education, music or street smarts. Having studied quite a range of topics, from Film to Politics, Philosophy and Economics, I love to share whatever I know and whatever might be helpful for you.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I will likely travel with some of my film equipment, so if there's anything I can help with (like a good headshot, teaching how to professionally film or edit) I'd be more than happy to do so! Please also let me aid with cooking, cleaning or any other bits and bobs that would be of help.
