CURRENT MISSION

I'm starting a trip around the world with this dude ( https://www.couchsurfing.com/users/1547580 ). Asia will be the starting point. There's a website here: http://out-of-the-nest.com

ABOUT ME

I'm somewhat introspective and I like to read, talk and learn. Obviously, Couchsurfing is very adequate for the last two endeavours. Let's be honest though, I also like to drink and go out when the mood strikes me.

I travelled a fair amount. I'm not sure why I do it and why I like it but I evidently do.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm not exactly sure what to put here. I don't have any paragraph in mind that would efficiently sum up the way I lead my life, assuming I'm consciously aware of it at all. One thing I very much try to avoid doing is taking my personal system of values as an absolute evaluating framework. What I prefer is what I prefer but in no way is it more valid than someone else's preferences.

I like people. And even when I don't, I tend to at least find them interesting. Seems to me like fruitful exchanges often emerge from positive interactions though, so that's how I typically engage with others.
