About Me

I am an independent journalist and a grad student at The New School university in NYC. I try to learn and try to go around the world to see people and cultures,to approach the notion of resistance in the epoch of incredulity...

Sometimes it's necessary to step out of your comfort zone and experience something new.So many places to go and so many people to see, how could one not look at the world and refrain from being amazed?!

It seems we are surrounded by friendly strangers...

PHILOSOPHY

"It is not the consciousness of men that determines their existence but their social existence that determines their consciousness"
Karl Marx

Music, Movies, and Books

Actually, I studied cinema though I am not a big fan of it.But that's okay,let's say for instance French movies.Francios Ozon's stuff and suchlike...

Most kinds of music especially classical music.Franz Schubert, a great deal.

For instance: "The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism" by canadian author Naomi Klein, "The Enchanted Soul" by Romain Rolland,Adam Hanieh's "Lineages of Revolt","Neoliberalism's War on Higher Education" by Henry A. Giroux etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It is a bit soon for me to be listing my laurels, but that's okay. Morning fog at the Pacific ocean...
