My favourite passtimes:
- Writing a doctorate in Mediterranean history (Muslim-Christian relations) UPDATE: this time seriously WRITING
- Overcoming addiction to language learning.
- Trying to dance tango in a way that doesn't look stupid.
- Staying away from Internet.
- Learning to cook vegan (it actually turns out to be delicious if you do it right!)
- Contemplating various ways in which world is approaching a social catastrophe in the current century.
- Being (reasonably) cheerful despite the latter.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you read this, mention Julius Ceasar in the message. It will increase your chances of being hosted.

Also, don't write me in English if I speak your language, I'll think that you didn't bother to read the profile.
