About Me

Aspiring polymath on a constant quest to find whatever is beautiful, quirky or surprising. I am an information sponge, trivia comes naturally to me

I really enjoy hearing and collecting people's stories and idiosyncrasies. It seems to me that the easiest way to understand one's own narrative is through empathising with that of the others!

Not a big fan of small talk, but if you let me in on your 'real self' I'll quickly become your friend

If you would like me to host you, please make sure you read the whole profile so that we can start off on the same page! We don't have a lot of space so when we say we can host 2 people that's already stretching it a bit

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm mainly looking to feed my travel bug. When I don't go somewhere myself I'd like to hear other people's stories.

Interests

Anything that involves composition interests me, I can pick up a conversation on books, film, music, photography. Not too interested in politics - philosophy is a more interesting abstraction.

  • humanities
  • books
  • photography
  • cooking
  • recipes
  • electronics
  • politics
  • trivia
  • reading
  • traveling
  • music
  • cycling
  • mathematics
  • science

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite writers are probably magical realists and existentialists, Borges and Camus are the contenders for no.1 spot.

I like jim jarmusch's films and anything that involves dark humor, but I won't say no to a good action flick.

I like all kinds of music, but the bulk of my collection revolves around electronic, but I am happy to collect samples from anywhere!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My opus magnum is the fact that having no interest in science and being generally a 'humanities' guy I got a degree in queen of sciences - maths.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share some music, a good film or the book I'm reading. Trying to gather up some more stories to pass on forward.

I am happy to share/exchange recipes, can also teach you some college maths if you are into that sort of thing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Other than that, trivia and 'fun facts' are my specialty. I am also a bit of an amateur chef, so if you fancy an authentic vietnamese dish, I'm more than happy to cook you one! In fact cooking is the thing I am probably best suited to help with. I can also walk your dog, fix a bike, this kind of stuff.

This used to say that I can probably fix your electronics, turns out fixing people's computers is super time consuming. But I'm happy to sit down with you and give it a try
