Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
to live a balanced life and enrich my experience and personality
ABOUT ME
The three best things I've ever heard about myself are: strange, creative, ambitious :) I laugh a lot and am a bit crazy, I am sort of a day dreamer - contemplative and easily distracted
PHILOSOPHY
"Perhaps the only difference between me and other people was that I've always demanded more from the sunset; more spectacular colors when the sun hit the horizon. That's perhaps my only sin."
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
It's a lovely way of experiencing a place - by meeting someone connected to it.
Interests
I study architecture, which consumes a big portion of my time. I am interested more specifically in digital design and fabrication. Besides that I enjoy hand-making, swing dancing and winter sports (ice-skating, snowboarding) and I am in constant search for adrenaline rushes. I am a tea fiend and I appreciate culture, cinema, art galleries, museums and traveling. I am particularly fond of meaningful discussions and new perspectives, which is what I appreciate about meeting new people.
