I'm a 27 year old master student in the area of philosophy of language, logic & semantics. I work for an academic bookstore in the centre of Amsterdam, and like to read and collect books. The other half of my time I work as a copy editor for a major Dutch newspaper. When not at work, I typically spend my afternoon cooking Persian stews. I am currently somewhat pursuing a career as a writer/essayist/editor.

Get to meet Martha Nussbaum who told me not to read Heidegger.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Food. The not-shit Amsterdam experience, consisting NOT of weed, hookers, partying and all the kinds of things that make us inhabitants despise tourists. Discussions on philosophy, semantics, politics, and all the other subjects I have a firm opinion on. First order predicate logic. Unfortunately I can't host due to a simple lack of space (we pretty much live in match boxes).
