Overview
About Me
I studied Philosophy and I'm still very interested in making sense of the world and human society. Literature is no doubt my greatest interest, I love to read and write as well. The latter is more of a love/hate thing but for sure it's an important part of who I am.
If you would meet me I will usually be friendly, talkative in a quiet way and interested in your stories.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I like the idea of allowing people to meet and share houses while traveling. It provides an interesting journey, as well as a generally social and charitable way of living.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Once I did the dishes at 3am.
Also, I wrote a small book of about 100 pages and a whole bunch of poetry.
I also practice fencing. Even though I used to train a lot more than I do now, I'm still pretty good at it.
Teach, Learn, Share
I think learning is cool.
