About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finishing my studies while trying to get the best out of Paris & London

ABOUT ME

curious, i'm interested in mostly everything, as long as there is a context to it, a story, a concept, a mind-rattling essence. i prefer to know a bit of everything, rather than be an expert on something. i enjoy heated discussions around a drink that turns into several drinks, as much as i enjoy nature, camping, the sun, the sea, and the snow. Art is my passion, colors, sounds, forms, and light make me dream.

PHILOSOPHY

you will find nothing about anything unless you try it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to host, but it depends on where I am in the world at that specific moment. For now I'm in Paris until February, and therefore I am crashing a distant cousin's couch until then. But I am available to meet newcomers, residents, like-minded people..

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

During my first week in Paris, I spent every individual night on a different person's couch, until I got a stable plan. I can tell you that now it's kind of difficult for me to sleep on a regular bed!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Made it to The Kunsthaus Tacheles before it closed down, saw durban sharks up close, and other things that I would love to talk about in person.
