About Me

CURRENT MISSION

be productive...always and everywhere

ABOUT ME

Travelling means inspiration. I always try to assimilate those impressions, by writing, drawing or taking some photos. Travelling means looking over my small horizon, meeting people, discussing, sharing and arguing over the diffrent worlds we live in.

PHILOSOPHY

passion vs. simulacrum, with all my wits against the blind, deaf, dumb and dull grey masses...try to play an active role, not being an opportunistic consumer

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

take and give...food, knowledge, space, relaxation...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

without CS I would never have experienced how much fun you can have with traveling and meeting totaly diffrent people...

Interests

Big cities are huge architecture museums. I love to walk around and look at amazing buildings, look in windows, go to hidden places. Finding the ideal shop to have a tea, visiting a bookshop. I often spend houres in galleries and museums for contemporary art. Usually I talk about art, philosophy or literature, music and everything else with passion.
Some other tings I'm interested in: running, windsurfing, snowboarding, aikido, sewing, cooking, nature, design, printing, the future of the (human)world...

Music, Movies, and Books

I like independent music from unknown artists, like Jazz in little, dusky jazzbars or this great Balkansound played by crazy brassbands with big golden instruments. But I'm also very open for new influences exept commercial shitmusic.

I love artmovies and movieart and movies like Le fabuleux destin d’Amélie Poulain, 13 Tzameti, Pulp Fiction, La Vita è bella, Du levande, 12 monkeys...

I read many books. Just to list a few great authors: J.G.Ballard, Kandinsky, Nietzsche, G.Orwell, Kafka, S.Lem, Baudrillard

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

the tremendous modern culture, where the individual is the main resource, where urbanity is next to nature...

Teach, Learn, Share

i'm planning a kind of collective fashion label, everyone with printing, gafix, drawing and sewing skills can participate
