About Me

I graduated from UCL with an MS.c in Environment & Sustainable Development. Planning alternative solutions to healthy urban living totally consumes my mind.

I currently work as a Field Archeologist in the South of Germany!

I am naturally introverted but I love meeting new people and having long conversations about topics involving social matters, music, art and movies!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to meet people with similar interests because I believe that it's the only way to authentically enrich my travels.

It is also always wonderful to form new and meaningful friendships

Music, Movies, and Books

I just love getting moved my music. Although my favorite genres are progressive rock and classical music. And when both are intertwined it's simply fantastic !

I recommend Steve Hackett's Out of the Tunnel's Mouth album to anyone out there

My favorite movies are those by directors David Lynch, Lars Von Trier, Ruben Östlund, Quentin Tarantino, Michael Scorsese, Guillermo del Torro, Francois Truffaut, Jean Luc Godard among many others

Amazing cinematography never fails to impress me. I love being shocked throughout the movie and realising things that are cleverly engineered in the plot. Humour is also important when it is subtle and witty

A movie I've watched recently and which completely blew my mind is Silence. It's amazing how it transported me in a meditative manner.

I love reading novels, philosophy and biographies of people who influenced morality and are examples of being true and altruistic regardless of mainstream trends.

Among my favorite books so far are The Picture of Dorian Gray, The Little Prince, Nineteen Eighty-four, Animal Farm, White Oleander, Lord of the Flies, the Glass Castle, The Chronicles of Narnia. I would appreciate recommendations for blowing books! I am interested in stories of redemption or those narrating an account of integrity. Anything that makes me understand myself or others a bit more by challenging the way I act or of how life works in general.

Intricate writing styles do not interest me much. It's the story that matters. A touching and moving one is what remains memorable.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
