ABOUT ME
People say I'm kind and gentle yet quite intense and passionate. I have an open mind and am also curious for discovering new things and meeting new friends. I studied science but also have a passion for visual arts, especially traditional photography and cinema. I've been studying for 10 years now a non-violent Japanese martial art called Aikido which is a fascinating adventure in itself.
PHILOSOPHY
I've got dreams to remember.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
It's my first time here.
Interests
I spend a lot of my free time learning and teaching Aikido. And more recently I got pretty involved into traditional photography to the point of processing my own films (black and white and color), printing my own photos and teaching others how to do so.
I also love music and used to play the saxophone in a local Soul/R&B revival band. Nowadays I enjoy Hi-Fi analogue music on a tube amp, it gives me a lot of joy that more recent technology can deliver.
