CURRENT MISSION

PHILOSOPHY

Whatever you do, if you're not hurting anybody I'm either here to assist or get out of the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm totally new to this thing, but eager to get to know people and share ideas and stories

Interests

I am currently pursuing my PhD in American Studies, and I am down to talk about all things pertaining US culture, the current political climate, literary criticism, critical theory etc.

However, I am also a huge music and film fan, so if you're not into the heady stuff, I also love to just geek out about my favorite artists and movies.

Also, I am a passionate cook and love to share my cooking, as well as learn about new dishes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Getting to live and study in the US twice now, and meet a lot of interesting people from all over the world

Teach, Learn, Share

“The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.”
— Kurt Vonnegut
