Interests

Music, music, music and even more music as far as performance, history, evolution,construction, meaning, form are concearned or as far as just music is concearned :)
I'm interested in people... everything there is about them..
I'm interest in stars, observing, learning, and teaching others about them..
And last but not least, exploring and traveling.. but I expect that -fortunately- that's not a very original thing to write in a site like couchsurfing :)

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite movie of all time is V for Vendetta. I really love all the films by Kubrick( all except of Lolita), Park and Miyazaki. Some random films I really enjoyed are Star Wars, Hot Fuzz, Lola Rennt, Contact, Les Triplettes de Belleville...

So...music. I love classical music especially baroque and contemporary music, some of my favourite composers are G.P Palestrina, Orlando di Lassus, J.S.Bach, D. Schostakovich, B.Bartok and K. Penderecki. I like the old school of jazz (i hate the new one), and generally i like strange-sounding-feeling music. Again some random artists/groups i like are Voltaire, Morphine, Opeth, i love the music by John Willimas (John Willimas is the maaaaaaaaaaan!), Steve Vai, Sigur Ros, God is an Astronaut(finaly some happy post rock!- jeez!), Riverdance, some songs by Blackmore's Night, S.O.A.D., Matt Elliott, Anthony and the Johnstons...

And finaly, books! All of the Harry Potters- of course!, books of Irvin Yalom, Umberto Eco, Jostein Gaarder and Jose Saramago, i loved "Perfume"... and Death Note and Asterix from the comic side of the reading family

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Playing in front of an audience, singing in a choir, the whole Eurotrip experience, falling in love at first sight, standing underneath the artificial rain in Ljubljana, experiencing telepathy, listening to Polini and Brendel playing live, standing insight a cave with all the lights off, the first time i've ever listened to Martha Argerich playing, standing in front of Michelangelo's Pieta, traveling on a boat with 10 Bofor wind strength..
