PhD student at university of Glasgow. Formerly living in Toulouse.
I think Bearding is a real occupation. Maybe I am a post hipster.
I'm vegetarian and kosher.
I go out and jew sometimes.
I'm a huge fan of shit tv and being surrounded by fun people who make me laugh.
I could find enjoyment in an opera, and the same amount in a rock concert, what matters is being passionate and open to other people who are creative.
I really value creative people and being able to see and meet up with unique people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For fun musically inclined nights? Helping cut costs when I go to cities for research.
More for stories though, finding other humans to human with and to live for brief moments.
Maybe other musicians to play music with? I might bring mine if it means I could have a jam session with other musicians.
