About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make the best story, and this is just the start of a beautiful one ...

ABOUT ME

Explaining yourself is a tough one, right? ... I'm what people around me made me is all I got's to say

PHILOSOPHY

There's a good explanation in a song about my philosophy:
"Most civilized people today are out of touch with reality because they confuse the world as it is with the world as they think about it, talk about it, and describe it. For on the one hand there is the real world and on the other the whole system of symbols about this world that we have in our minds. They are all very, very useful symbols, all our civilization depends on it but like all good things they have their disadvantages And the principal disadvantage of symbols is that we confuse them with reality. Like we confuse money with actual wealth and our names about ourselves, our ideas of ourselves, our images of ourselves with ourselves.
Of course reality from the philosopher’s point of view is a dangerous word. A philosopher will ask me what do I mean by reality. Am I talking about the physical world of nature or am I talking about the spiritual world or what? And to that I have a very simple answer: When we talk about the material world it is actually a philosophical concept. And if I say that reality is spiritual it is also a philosophical concept.And reality itself is not a concept, reality is …

….and we won’t give it a name."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been around since I've met a few people who introduced me to the local branch on Couchsurfing. Surprising or not the person who introduced me to CS, being a Bulgarian, is an Indian dude by the name of Gipi Gopinath. I have been a part of the community ever since, because it's always refreshing to meet such diverse active people.
