I studied Cinema and Journalism, I consider myself as an open and respectful person and I'm passionate about culture, arts and travelling.

The things that keep me alive are painting and drawing, playing music, doing theater, learning languages, travelling and creating documentary films.

I usually paint with acrylic, and the instruments I play are the transverse flute, dolçaina and ney. I also like to experiment with my voice, piano and guitar.

My field of specialisation is Documentary Filmmaking. I created six documentary films, all of them without financial aid and very little materials. The topics of my works are historical memory, justice and human rights. Another one is a short diary about my experience and reflections while living in México. Another is about an Afghan journalist living in Turkey with his family as a refugee.

I believe in arts as a way to raise awareness and reflection, to fight against injustice and as a channel of expression to reach human's feelings.

In general, I'm a very curious, restless and hardworking person, lover of arts but also of history, physics, philosophy, mathematics, society, education and politics.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling, meeting new people, listening new stories and learning about other cultures, languages and history.

In short: travel, share, experience, get lost, find yourself, discover, make mistakes, improve, learn.
