Overview
About Me
I am said to be stubborn, spontaneous but thoughtful, naive but wise, peaceful but joyful, crazy but calm, frank but caring
The truth is probably an eclectic mix of all these: I am a lively and chaotic mixture of excessive compassion and egocentric introspection, a mystery to myself.
Interested in far too many things to be an expert in anything: psychology, Japanese anime, metaphysics, history, sociology, feminism, philosophy, Marxism, Buddhism, communism, mythology, anarchy, esotericism, painting, photography, writing
I've been studying for a long time but I don't worship the academic world. I just have a very utopian vision of the future that makes me try to change it by entering the system. There's a great possibility that I'll get out right after I get in.
I like the touch of madness in people, the little thing that persists in the overwhelming injunction to conform
I admire passion in all its forms, I travel to discover this passion in myself and in others
Whatever the dilemma, I choose freedom. Always, freedom, nothing but freedom.
I read: Franz Fanon, Jack Kerouac, Bukowski, Herman Hesse, Rainer Maria Rilke, Salman Rushdie, Audrey Lorde, Virginie Despentes, Toni Morrison
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
There are many ways to meet people but couchsurfing is one of the best to share life experience and point of views in a very intimate setting
I also don't like discovering cities through commun circuits so a local knowledge is always useful !

Currently learning about Middle East in a wide general way, studied the world dymamics before specializing in this region. If you wanna know my point of view on why the world is fucked up, but still full of wonders, please feel free to ask
