Overview
About Me
Currently on a mission to define my place in the universe.
Musician? Traveler?? Overthinker?? A BIT PECULIAR???
All of the above describe me well. :D I'm trying to shed all labels and enjoy life for what it brings each day.
And yes, I'm one of those cliches that dream to live in a tiny house/ campervan / shed in the bush one day.
//PHILOSOPHY//
Explore, Dream, Discover.
Judge less and love more.
That sort of thing.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I want to meet people from every corner of the world, share thoughts, exchange ideas, learn about the past and dream for the future, cause that's my idea of becoming a better human.
Interests
I like to mess around with musical instruments, cameras, watercolour, languages, and deep, pretentious philosophical questions. I like to forget to define myself and go about my day. Sometimes, I enjoy long walks and I recently took up hiking as a thing I want to do more often so, if you're up for a hike, hit me up!

Music, Movies, and Books
// music //
I love anything acoustic/folky/pop that makes my soul warm (or crush, but in a good way). I stand by the no-bad-genres-only-bad-songs belief. I love alternative rock. I love good beats and good words. I love looping. I love music that's hard to describe.
Regina Spektor, Damien Rice, Fiona Apple, Tune Yards, dodie, Dermot Kennedy, Ani DiFranco, Joni Mitchell, Muse, Arctic Monkeys, Enter Shikari
// movies //
Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind, Dead Poets Society, Kill your Darlings, Dancer in the Dark, The Imitation Game, Girl Interrupted, Heavenly Forest (ただ君を愛してる), After The Dark (The Philosophers), 10 things I hate about you
(currently obsessed with Gilmore Girls)
// books //
mostly poetry & non-fiction, Neil Gaiman's short stories, Sophie's world, Tropic of Cancer
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Waved goodbye to my comfort zone.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can play a living room concert for you. :) If you play music, or if you want to learn, I can share tips or we can play together! I'm currently traveling with a cello, so you can have a go with it, if you're curious. ;)
I play piano, guitar, drums, ukulele, violin, cello and flute, most on an above-decent level. Ah, I also sing. :)
If you're into languages, I can teach you some greek as well!
What I Can Share with Hosts
My cello! My company, a handmade watercolor postcard, tips on how to avoid a quarter life crisis, my eternal gratitude :)
