To enjoy life to the fullest while trying to get less comfortable and less dependent on material things while holding on to our books :). So far we have managed to get rid of our car and to buy most of the things we need second hand. We have given away things we don't need to charity. We also grow some vegetables in our small garden. Next time we travel we will use couchsurfing and we are considering to get rid of the TV

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Understanding human agency as enabled and/or constrained, but never determined by its structural context can make all the difference.

Interests

Oh, I've met sooooo many wonderful, lovely, and just fantastic people through couchsurfing... and I'm sure there'll be lots more in the coming years!

• books
• gardening
• movies
• tv
• traveling
• music

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't have a telly any more, and what a relief that is! That said I do watch a lot of movies, but again rather randomly. I'm just as happy to watch Sound of Music or Casablanca for the umpteenth time as I am to discuss Dogma films or film noir. For a while now my favourite movie has been Mary and Max - go see it, or I might just make you watch it when you're here.
