About Me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet people from all over the world and have thought provoking conversations.

Interests

Best word to describe my interests is curiosity. When facing something new, I love to open books / Wikipedia to learn more about the subject. In addition, I love to look at things from different angles to re-question assumptions.

  • culture
  • journalism
  • philosophy
  • political science
  • science
  • social science
  • indie music
  • indie films
  • philosphy

Music, Movies, and Books

I read a lot, but rarely novels. Most of my reads start from questions that pop in my mind such as "What is a particle in physics and what do we know so far about them?", "How is the brain works?", "What is liberalism and why is it so popular in the political discourse?". Then, I open different tools (Wikipedia, specialized encyclopedia, handbook, scientific articles, etc.) to answer the best I can about those questions by comparing definition, conception, debates, critics, etc.

In term of movies, I like to find hidden gems, being indie / small budget movies or foreign-language movie.
