About Me

ABOUT ME

I like conversations about art and politics. I studied art history, today I am working in the fields of theatre, literature and cultural memory as a journalist, curator and researcher.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is a great experience to get to know people of other countries and cultures. I think we should always learn from each other. It is the only way to create respect.

Interests

I love the arts and like to enjoy art with other people. Theatres, museums, concert halls and cinemas are my favorite places.
