Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
develop and innovate democracy to bring it to a level what we expect from our social contract that can deliver in this increasingly complex world.
ABOUT ME
am quite liberal, and politically and philosophically oriented, enjoy healthy living, outdoors, interacting with people.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I think traveling is all about getting an understanding of a city through its residents. Thus, I like meeting folks, get perspective.
Interests
Cooking random things. Lindy hop dance. Acro-yoga. Meditation. Playing harmonica. Pickling (especially kimchi!). Cycling and bike-packing.
And notably, I'm very interested in how we can elevate and innovate democracy, as the current form and processes are not up to the need we have from it.
I enjoy stoic philosophy.
