About Me

Travelling around. Looking for fun people to hang out with.

I am a social scientist by profession. I am curious and want to understand how things work. Love to talk about history, politics, cultures, philosophy, psychology, travelling.

Serious and thoughtful but also easy-going and love laughing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mainly hangouts, sometimes hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Overall really positive in terms of broadening my mind even when meeting people whom I will not otherwise meet - actually those are probably the most interesting.

Interests

Meeting new cultures, exploring the world. Sociology, politics, history and travelling (surprise!).

I would love to meet people who have similar interests to me.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have to read a lot of non-fiction literature for my work so I prefer to chill out with a nice movie at the end of the day. Some favorite movies that are on top of my head: The Shawshank Redemption, The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies, Gone Girl, Boyhood and TV series: Black Mirror, Game of Thrones, How I Met Your Mother, Breaking Bad, Vikings, House of Cards.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got a PhD.

Teach, Learn, Share
