CURRENT MISSION

Don't let myself become a misanthrope.

ABOUT ME

I'd love to become a professor of history, a hobo, a trumpet player in a Balkan orchestra or a barfly. I know these are not necessarily mutually exclusive.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Used it for the 1st time on the famed and glorious Matylda's & Matylda's trip to Ukraine (and this time I'm not even talking about my alter-ego). Also tried to be mildly entertaining at several CS meetings. I hope it doesn't finish at that point.

Centres d'intérêt

History, politics and culture + finding ways to become a hobo.
Also: ALL THINGS Central/Eastern Europe- or Scandinavia-related and really bad music.

• culture
• drinking
• politics
• music
• trumpet
• teaching
• history

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I don't judge people on their cultural tastes that much (well, I do if they're really shitty) and prefer to argue about them over a beer, not the internet.
Lately I've been into documentaries and music from outside the English-speaking box. I still love Nick Cave, though.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can blabber you to death about Polish history, trying too hard to prove it's not only about drinking and being a nation of moustached plumbers. Or is it? Oh wait...
