About Me

CURRENT MISSION

go to mongolia horseriding, set up an organic farm, get good at music

ABOUT ME

I could list an entire bunch of `isms` like: feminist, anarchist, etc - but I think what mainly qualifies me is: open-minded, purist, highly distracted, in perpetual quest for love and other big things. I`m a bit frantic as well. And I love metal music for it`s what i found the closest to love through cosmic power, maybe...
Though I listen to lots of other things.

PHILOSOPHY

Life`s a lightning and a war in which we all lose. All our pretentions and desires are bound to end in death. All what we think to be true or right are representations on dead matter.
Know that what you do is nothing - but that you can do all because your body`s a shell and pain is nothing.
From all this I take force to do everything I want - `cause I found happiness several times in love, and anytime I felt as dust in the wind.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach
English, French, guitar, screenwriting, growing plants and shrooms, plant identification, computer tricks, linux

Learn
chinese, russian, german, and lots of others; how to fish, build - lots of practical skills I lack. I'd love to learn how to take my life in my hands and not just be a passive victim of laziness

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well I'll share my bed and flat without limitations, kitchen and all, but be warned it's a small place: 10 m2. It's also an awful mess most of the year ^^
You may stay here as long as you please, and I might even give you an extra pair of keys, if need be.
I could show you around the place and feed you with organic vegetables if you come in harvest period ^^
