About Me

I am a person who is generally happy. I am always eager to learn and also keen on teaching and making genuine connections. In life I keep an attitude of openness in which I believe nothing is a miracle and nothing is a definite truth. However I do have personal beliefs. I enjoy discussing philosofies and general possibilities. Arguins semantics is my second name. Meaning that I sometime nitpick when arguing about something, in addition I might be able to make a very unlikely yet entirely possible argument.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing for various reasons. But I guess it is mostly to meet people from the place I am visiting. This is to create an interesting mental map of the world, politically as well as knowledge about the areas geography.

Interests

My interests can't really be summarised because nearly everything seems interesting to me. Currently I'm enjoying to meet people and find out more about their stories, but more importantly find the topic they know most about and would be able to teach me new things about. I'll start studying this September in Amsterdam in a study called social geography and urban planning. In love with utopias as much as distopian ideas. Anything that involves quantum phenomenon would also be a great interest of mine.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Having travelled around and now making a decision to stay somewhere for half a year, despite having had plans to travel and see more of the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you Dutch. As well as a lot of things related to attitudes, life design and memory improvements. I would love to learn more about ideas that could help improve our day to day lives or even the social structures. And as for sharing, I can share a meal with you although I personally eat completely vegetarian. And of course a laugh and a drink.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook for the hosts, but mostly what I can offer is a great laugh. I love sarcastic humor which is rigged with touches of reality. I like having more serious conversations as well it really depends on what you feel like.
