About Me

Settled in Utrecht for now. Open to hosting if we coincide on dates as I have quite a hectic lifestyle :D

CURRENT MISSION
Being happy

PHILOSOPHY
Maybe we’re here in order to experience people as a reason for love

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

life is all about people

Interests

Everything about everything

I enjoy visual arts (movies, photography and whatever), music (almost anything), reading (fiction, philosophy, cognitive science and other stuff), taking online and not online courses, attending all sorts of events, volunteering (mostly on film festivals / art events), meeting people, studying

travelling, badminton, cycling, skiing, board-games playing, hiking

What I do not that often or don't do at all but really want to :):
sailing, kayaking, camera work, photography, hang gliding, (wind/kite) surfing, wake-boarding, dancing (lindy hop and tango), climbing, trampolining, mountaineering, cooking, learning to play piano, swimming, beach volleyball, squash, skating, aerial yoga :)))

Music, Movies, and Books

music: instrumental, experimental, jazz, blues, indie, rock, classical. All time favorites: Tom Waits, Nick Cave, Nina Simone, Erik Satie, Leonard Cohen

movies: documentaries, forever Hitchcock, Tarkovsky, von Trier, Polanski, Chaplin, Terry Gilliam, Ingmar Bergman, some Fellini, festival movies. In general I am most about art house and sometimes documentaries.

books: a lot of different stuff. But authors that stayed with me - Dostoevskiy, Bukowski, Nietzsche, Kerouac, Schopenhauer. With all the current distractions around I'm struggling to complete books right now, but I'll gt there :) Generally I'd read fiction from top lists :D, philosophy books, non-fiction about whatever interest I currently have and a loooot of random articles
