About Me

I'm a very curious person, I approach topics philosophically. I enjoy talking about how we perceive life as it unfolds before us, how the world works from our subjective point of view. I rejoice in discussing how things are 'right' and 'wrong' and why things are the way they are.
I don't generally drink alcohol, i don't smoke nor do drugs. I tend to say i replace these with water and the fresh air around me (If we can call it that hehe)
I like walking and riding my bicycle. I enjoy walking around, preferably in nature. I don’t consider myself a very experienced photographer but i love what i do with the cameras I own.
I enjoy all kinds of sports, i used to play Tennis, Basketball and Volleyball back in school. I've lived in Sweden for 8 years and now i find myself in Budapest, Hungary studying Communication and Media Science, only half a year left.
I enjoy long conversations, i'm a person who likes to talk and listen.

Let's converse and get life going!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travelled around Europe and latin america with my family, visited many places and seen/met a bunch of friendly people. I also went to Abisko in Lappland within Sweden to see the northern lights, this experience engulfed my nature-lover spirit.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could share the languages I know and know about. I would love to know more about yours!

I’m inclined to dig through social taboos, crises and conflict, i claim no expertise but I believe and function on my holistic way of handling these through dialogue and constant elaboration of questions. I believe we, individually, may be able to grasp a greater understanding of ourselves and our minds.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Long conversations about anything and everything.
I've got tennis rackets and badminton ones for spring and summer time play!
I've got a an extra bicycle (about to sell) and a Swedish game called 'boule', maybe we could play this too :)
I play guitar, i've got one, i can share nice Vinyls for my record player that we could listen to together.
