ABOUT ME
I've become nerdy I guess. Still I love running jumping dancing exploring
PHILOSOPHY
Honesty before oneself is the central thing I guess
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have already been hosted by a bunch of cooool people, sometime I must also be a cool person and host
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Istanbul. United States. Both were perfect, CS is a blast.
Interests
I primarily study abnormal amounts of stuff now. Preparing for economics grad school, learning sth in programming, improving my French.
Sometimes it is impossible to sit and I go somewhere far, here CS is a good friend of mine. Actually I enjoy being with nature so much more than cities lately.
And music, rhythm especially, always makes me go crazy. I'm a drummer, that's literally in my heart. I'm trying to become a salsa dancer, too (current level: AWKWARD)

Teach, Learn, Share
I'm a private tutor in economics. You'll get a discount!
Get a pair of drumsticks and a piece of rubber and I'll teach you the magic of drumming....
Let's cook something, too!
