About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Student a philosophy, amateur classical philologist, poet, writer, etc. To learn is to know, to teach is to show, to love is to grow and to feel is to know. These are of upmost value to me and consider them as privileges not to be taken for granted. I constatnly try to widen my horizons as to my capabilites and try to take everything with appreciation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to host if I can, I try to surf if I can and I just like meeting new people, spreading the word of CS and keeping in mind that change comes from mouth to mouth and eye to eye, one by one humanity can come together in the long run we shall know that we are all brothers of a single race.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The people I have met and people that have stayed in my life, ever changing it and constantly enriching it.

Teach, Learn, Share

How come that in this age of reason, we still cling to the sexual-idealistic conception of love. Love should not be contrary to reason or at odds with it. Love is reserved only for the wise and petty affections are for the rest of the lot. Love can obsolve us form our erroneous ways, but we must cast asunder religious dogmatism and moral schematizations ... love beyond good and evil ... once it did exist -> the Greeks were the masters of Philia -> let us listen, read and learn ... and with it also feel, for reason is naught without feeling and vice versa.
