CURRENT MISSION

To make at least one person laugh or smile every day of my life

ABOUT ME

In short I'd say I'm a quite easygoing modernday cityhippie :D Sign language studies have conquered my life (or so it feels like from time to time) and I'm currently having a kind of identity crisis. I've started to notice some adultlike features emerging from my thougts, but I'd still like to maintain the naïve mañana lifestyle I've gotten used to during these last few years. I'm hoping I'll reach some kind of middle ground in the next few years.

I'm vegan (freegan) and straight edge. I still enjoy making people think about their lives and question the things going on around them. I love getting really to the root of things and thoroughly discussing and understanding the topic.

PHILOSOPHY

"Live your life so that you don't have to regret anything when you die"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted, surfed and met some great CouchSurfers since signing up, and I can't wait to meet many more travellers and to hear their amazing stories.

Interests

My next big goal in life is merging Sign Language research with sustainable development in order to improve human rights on an international scale. However I'm still interested in anything that involves questioning status quo, ecoanarchism, queer, veganism, animal rights, feminism, unconventional arts, dumpster diving...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've skydived, gone sailing (took part in Tall Ships's Races 2007 with FairTradeShip Estelle), hitch hiked around Europe, been pierced and tattooed, been naked in public, squatted a house, met some wonderful people and made the most of my life. It's not one separate thing, it's the entity.

Teach, Learn, Share

You will always survive with just a little bit of imagination. Remember that.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you basic sign language! :D Or if I happen to meet you while carrying a coil of rope with me, I can teach you a few basic ties and knots :)
