Music journalist & theatre historian of 26. I have blue eyes and a little bit of grey hair that doesn't seem to suit my age- though I figure I am more light-hearted than I am creepy. I really enjoy strolling around and reading, and most people know me by my laugh and my rather merciless sense of humor. My main passions are music, visual arts, literature and travel and I like animals and trashy stuff like punk music and politics. I also love discussions (better to embrace difference than to pretend it doesn't exist) and will listen to your fascinations with awe - whether it's about spades or nuclear physics, passion is the key :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's allowed me to get to know some really precious people. Also I think we should keep unmonetized circuits alive (capitalism is eating the world) and it cheers me up to help people out

Interests

Music, visual arts, psychology, film, physics,... It's a long list :)

• arts
• dining
• cooking
• politics

Music, Movies, and Books

Here's my chance to prepare you for how pretentious I am!!! I really enjoyed Cortazar, Oscar Wilde, Jeroen Brouwers, Chuck Palahniuk, Carlos Ruiz Zafon, Salinger, Sartre and many more. Music-wise the Smiths, Joy Division, Portishead, Velvet Underground, Sleaford Mods, Tim Hecker, Autechre, Joana Newsom...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Meeting bioluminescent seaworms during a nightswim in Greece

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot about my city, it's history and the nicest hangouts- I can also point you to contemporary exhibitions, musea, and concert halls/concerts (jazz & underground). I'm also always down for teaching or learning a few words in the language of the local area and a glass of wine if I have the time!
