ABOUT ME

I am a cuddly intersectional feminist who derives pleasure from absurdity and food.

PHILOSOPHY

It revolves around human rights, body-positivity, sex-positivity, intersectional feminism, and self-acceptance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I only hope my couch will come in handy and that I'll be a good host for anyone who decides to visit. I'll cook for you, too!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted many people and I've been hosted a lot as well. Truly wonderful!

Interests

Feminism, words, art, travelling, internet, psychoanalytic theory, race politics, body politics, sex politics, gender politics, cultural theory and FOOD.

I love food. Can I stress that enough? I guess I can't. I.LOVE.FOOD.
One of my life goals is to eat at a place like elBulli. Watch the documentary if you're a foodie, and you'll thank me. However, after I watched it I literally had nightmares that night (because it is not open any more), along with a heavy heart and a genuine sadness the morning after. Places like those should never close down. *single tear*

favourite poet & novelist is Yannis Skaribas
and favourite thinkers are far too many, but I have a soft spot for Roland Barthes and Michel Foucault.

Music:

I am musically unintelligent but I enjoy listening to (cool) jazz, blues and classical music. Old Punk Rock is also nice.

I love stand up comedy! Absurd, dry, dark and meta!
