Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
It changed our lives: we met the most fabulous persons!
Interests
homo sum humani nihil a me alienum puto
Anyway: Anthropology and human science (I told you), cinema, books, travel, music etc.
I mostly like things that destroy my system of belief. So, when everything I thought true was false, I'm happy. Or something close to happy. You are a destroyer of people's cognitive system? You are welcome.
