I'm a software engineer who doesn't look like typical programmes at all :D. I've been in the theatre scene for five years, and performing and dancing really light me up. I've also worked as a bookseller, which totally fueled my love for storytelling. My passion for photography has consistently been a driving force. I'm currently tackling German-it's definitely a fun challenge! Plus, I've just started getting into video editing to level up my storytelling game. I'm all about mixing creativity with tech and just enjoying the journey!

For me, having a clearly defined career isn't as crucial as living by my core values. I truly believe that empathy and kindness are incredibly impactful, and I strive to be around people who share that same willingness to be open and compassionate towards others.
I believe only love can help us survive this era of capitalism and neo-liberalism which wants to make lonelier and weaker individuals out of us.

I prefer my trips to be more about immersing myself in the unique essence and spirit of each location I visit and getting to know more about the people who live there and their culture, worldviews and habits.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I find it here one of the rare places which is still alive and available to make pure communication easier and values human connection. I believe we always need more and more utilities to facilitate and support eachother in order to make this life easier for eachother and fight against a world that makes us lonely and lonelier each day by forcing its individualistic standards and values upon us.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My presence, my empathy, my deep no judgement listening, my tidiness, etc.

Cooking, some photography skills, some contemporary dance skills plus some technology and programming skills I have might be of help in special circumstances if needed.

And last but not least is that I'm recently in the last two years on my journey to become a massage therapist so I can surely offer an almost professional massage session if needed and appreciated.
