Overview
About Me
I'm very curious and spontaneous, fascinated by people, cultures and travelling.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
What I love the most is meeting and getting to know people. While I find interest in all types of living beings, I find the human mind and its complexity fascinating. Why do people act the way they do? Where do their beliefs come from? How similar are we? What differentiates us from each other? These questions are what drives me to travel, start spontaneous conversation, read books, watch documentaries, movies etc. Hopefully we can chat about the crazy experiences that are life and death together!
