CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to help people and to experience as much as I can.

ABOUT ME

I'm a leftist. I make music; I love to travel when I can; I like to read, write, and go on adventures. I'm open-minded, fun, sensitive, pensive. I'm interested in talking about the universe, about community, about politics, about ethics, about feelings, etc. I'm a PhD student. I'm currently working on making a documentary (and I have no idea what I'm doing) about relations between Georgians and Russians.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm interested in what we can do to make the world as good as possible for everyone. I want to experience what I can while I can.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I travel fairly regularly, but unfortunately, I cannot host people right now. Hopefully soon!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While living with a group of guys, we hosted a lot of people from everywhere. It was a lot of fun. I met some really cool people, and got to learn from their experiences. I like meeting people in other places as I skip about.

Centres d'intérêt

I'm mostly interested in ideas and feelings. I want to understand people better and I want to discuss all our thoughts on everything. Apart from that, I really enjoy reading, writing, and making music.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I have a daughter, and having her in my life has been amazing.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I love to teach people things and I love to learn. There are things that I know about, but I wouldn't assume what I know that others don’t. I think that everyone has things to teach and things to learn, and that's really exciting to me! I think that sharing is really nice.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I'm a curious person and I love a good conversation. I'd like to share my humanity, maybe cook someone a meal, go for a walk, see somewhere cool, whatever we can do to connect humans sounds pretty good!
