Mario S - $1,400/month

I’m working as a research assistant in philosophy at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland, where I teach and write a PhD thesis. I‘m going to spend 1 year at Columbia‘s philosophy department as a visiting from September on.

I’m passionate about books (predictably), playing and watching football (soccer), the arts (mainly painting and music). I’m a sociable and outgoing person who likes to hang out with friends for drinks. As a half-Italian, food plays a very important part in my personal happiness. ;-) I love to cook (and I'm reasonably good at it, too), also with my roommate, and I’m also happy to share the outcome of my efforts.
