About Me

Hello together, my name is TlMM, currently I'm a Business Development Manager + post-graduate student in Art History in Berlin and in leisure time - emerging curator of political arts. I am working in Telecommunications in a startup and love it, because we have a mission to help people! I am very happy to meet and host people with similar interests (please do read the list below before sending a request), especially startup founders and workers in sustainable businesses, open knowledge activists, leftist political thought and scholars, social entrepreneurs, ecological activists, journalists, social workers, video makers, artists, vegans and vegetarians.

My main interests are curating the exhibitions and cultural, social and political projects, participating in volunteer projects on political education and social problems, working on projects in art mediation in museums. Currently I am launching an NGO on free-for-all democratic museums education and curate exhibitions on political history and arts.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like sharing knowledge and emotions about subjects I'm interested in and I admire. I enjoy getting to know new people of different backgrounds, who engage in politics, social life, culture and arts, who think critically and want to learn others. But I also want to express my solidarity to those who want to change our world at any scale, and travel for this sake. Always feel happy to share with unknown people my values, views and joy.

Leave the sunshine out and say hello to never
