Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Visiting the small church and waterfalls that are featured in the first part of La Meglio Gioventu and reaching London with a Sailing Yacht
ABOUT ME
I enjoy sports, circus (acro, juggling,..), skateboarding, making music, dancing, writing, reading... Anything that keeps me away from the screens (TV, Mac,..) we're so used and so tied to.
PHILOSOPHY
I always say the truth: not the entire truth, because no one ever does. Saying the entire truth is impossible, materially: we lack the right words to do so. And thanks to this impossibility, truth tends towards the real. I am convinced of the importance of the impossible, that is felt through life experience and eventually adds up to the subject I happen to be.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I just entered the CS Project and have no clue on how to participate in this community. I came in touch with CS through a friend, but have been couchsurfing unofficially ever since i was brought to life.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
None officially yet.
Interests
I'm very interested in contemporary philosophy such as Slavoj Zizek, Alain Badiou, Jean Baudrillard, Jacques Lacan.. Besides that, I want to know everything about the conflict in the northern part of Iraq and the relationship between Iraq and Turkey, specific focus on the Kurdish question.
