ABOUT ME

I'm curious, open-minded. I'm interested in other people, other people's experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

'One being's freedom ends where another being's freedom begins.'

'To be modern, I said, is to experience personal and social life as a maelstrom, to find one's world and oneself in perpetual disintegration and renewal, trouble and anguish, ambiguity and contradiction: to be part of a universe in which all that is solid melts into air. To be a modernist is to make oneself somehow at home in the maelstrom, to make its rhythms one'€™s own, to move within its currents in search of the forms of reality, of beauty, of freedom, of justice, that its fervid and perilous flow allows.'
'To be modern is to find ourselves in an environment that promises us adventure, power, joy, growth, transformation of ourselves and the world -- and at the same time that threatens to destroy everything we have, everything we know, everything we are.'

- Marshall Berman

'I've never understood why straight fiction is supposed to be for everyone, but anything with a gay character or that includes gay experience is only for queers.'

- Jeanette Winterson

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can show you around in Berlin.
Have a drink, have a bite, go somewhere nice.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All in all positive.
A comfortable way to get in touch with people, which is especially nice when, afterwards, you stay in a foreign place for longer.

Интересы

I'm very interested in literature and theatre (arts in general).
I take pretty much pleasure in ballet, which I have started last year.
I want to restart playing tennis soon, which I haven't done in years.
Also get my guitar string fixed!
