About Me

I'm easy-going, friendly and interested in learning new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people.

Interests

I am goofy and light-hearted, still deeply concerned about our world and the corresponding responsibility for the part we play in it. Being a life-long student of science, philosophy, religion and fiction, I try my best to understand the human condition and live by the insights made.

Through writing, talking, drawing and volunteering, I attempt to give something back and donate a small contribution to the glorious line of bright people through history, who dedicated their life to increase our understanding of Existence.

I also do things for money. They call it Clinical Psychology. I call it talking to people about what it means to exist.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Rock, anything with poetic lyrics.

Books: Too many to mention them all. "Being and time" by Heidegger, "The order of the discourse" by Foucault, "1984"/"Animal Farm" by Orwell, "The idiot" by Dostojevskij, "LOTR" by Tolkien, and the space triology by C. S. Lewis probable covers the width of themes.

Movies: Hard one. Depends on mood. But I do have a soft-spot for "Love, actually". (Don't judge, asked me why)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Love

Teach, Learn, Share

I guess I could share interesting and possibly new things with you in the areas of funfacts, psychology, philosophy, religion, literature or thermodynamics. I'm especially passionate about the impact of technology on cultural evolution and ethics, animal welfare and social justice.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good company and a helping hand, if it's within my power.
