My name is Matthías, I'm 26 years old from Iceland, living together with my girlfriend in Amsterdam after having finished my music studies. I studied classical clarinet and live electronics, and now I'm mainly playing with the surreal fanfare band Molino as well as working on my solo alternative electronica project, and searching for a job. I love to get into conversation about music, arts, travel, psychology, self searching, nature, fashion, technology, stereo-types, feminism, expression and much more. I hope to meet some interesting people around the world! Whilst traveling, my main goal is usually to get to know locals, their view on life and their surroundings, and getting close with the nature of a place.
