About Me

Into traveling (duh), art and illustration, graphic novels and comic, animation and cinema, fuzzy psyched-out space rock and psychedelia in general, literature and philosophy, languages, yoga, meditation, cats, weird people, life contemplation, randomness and writing inconsistent self-descriptions.

I'm pretty laid back, love to chill and have intense conversations and to get lost in nature.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am currently doing an Erasmus in Lille, France, and would like to explore the country a little bit during this time. I'd love to meet locals patient enough to listen to how I destroy their language (okay, I am actually not that bad, just a lil shy still haha) and show me cool and unusual things!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
Okay, I tend to devour anything youtube suggests me (ending up in real strange places tbh). I don't like to class things in genres, but I guess if I had to name those I enjoy the most they would be:
psych rock (both from the 60s/70s and neo-psych), shoegaze, space rock, stoner rock, garage, post punk, prog rock, indie/alternative rock, post rock, ambient, electronica, techno, jazz, soul, classical, world music, etc.

Movies:
I'm quite a cinephile as well, among my favourites are: Ingmar Bergman, Akira Kurosawa, Eric Rohmer, Lars von Trier, Andrei Tarkovski, Gaspar Noé, Jean-Luc Goddard, Fellini, Kubrick, etc.

Books: he, he, a dangerous question to ask to a literature student! But I'm gonna be polite and concise and just tell you the ones that have been the favouritest for longer: Artaud and Dostoyevski. Hesse was a favourite of mine for a long time as well, since it was sort of the first 'real literature' book I read (it was Steppenwolf). In general I am more interested in XIXth century stuff, but the XXth is pretty cool as well.

I enjoy talking about media I love just as much as discovering new stuff, I'm really open in this sense :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Take my clothes off during a trek through the Amazonia to get under a cascade!
