One of my true passions has always been traveling, ever since I was a young kid. In my opinion the true value of traveling, especially nowadays when it's easy to explore everything online, is making actual experiences.
In life I write and publish essays on philosophy, art and cultural topics. Besides that I also work as a freelance user experience designer on communication and design projects.
I'm a huge film lover and like to go to the cinema to watch comtemporary movies as well as old ones. I read a lot. And I like techno music a lot, but also salsa music, which is better for dancing together :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I visit unknown places I like to meet new people and connect with locals. Also, I usually find it inspiring to have surprising visits from time to time at home.
