MISSION - Walk across Europe in a straight line ABOUT - From August to the beginning of October I am doing a European tour, hitchhiking all around to different countries. I want to gain a greater perspective in life and learn more about myself. It would be wonderful if you could host me during my stay in your city! I like art, music, literature, philosophy, looking into the sun, digging holes, assembly lines, foreign dictionaries, scribbling in my dairy, drawing stick figures, clown costumes, breaking and entering, perjury, mukbang ASMR, satisfying compilations, boring black and white art films that are poorly produced and have no discernible plot, or sense of enjoyment, and screaming.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
To learn about cities from the locals, seeing all the beautiful spots away from tourists and eating the regions real food; experiencing the area with those who know it best.

If you play an instrument we can bang them on a piano together and make a experimental album.
