CURRENT MISSION

figuring out what's next

ABOUT ME

interrupted by periods in germany and canada i have for the last few years mostly lived in edinburgh where i study sociology and politics.

if i'm not doing that i travel quite a bit, work some job to finance said travelling, listen to music, cook food, read some novels, do some campaigning stuff, ride my bike, wander.

i'm pretty unorganized and forgetful, but you can call it 'spontaneous' if you want.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

great ones! surfed quite a bit around europe and north america. hosted lovely people on our hallway couch in edinburgh, which amongst other things led to drunken ghost tours, learning to cook 1,50 pound italian wartime-food, absinth excesses, life- size drawings of ian curtis and good friends.
