ABOUT ME
So, personality wise I'd say I'm communicative and silent, easy-going and electric, optimistic and pesimistic, rarely down to earth, hurt when I hit the ground but always remain a dreamer. I love spending time with nice and warm people and at the same time enjoy wandering alone. Eager to discover new cultures, new ideas, new ways of doing things and to have amazing experiences.
PHILOSOPHY
What you've done becomes the judge of what you are going to do especially in other people's minds. When you're traveling, you are what you are right there and then. People don't have your past to hold against you. No yesterdays on the road. (William Least Heat Moon)
We're all bought, and what's more we're bought with our own money. (Orwell)
Find what you love and let it kill you. (Bukowski)

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Spreading the good name ;)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
So far, so good...nice rides with good people!
Interests
I find huge pleasure in music in general (listening, dancing, singing, playing), snowboarding, good food, music festivals, laughing, sports, literature, poetry, languages, hiking, wonders of nature, old cars and travel vans made into the house, tattoos and any kind of eccentric stuff. Fascinated by human creativity and stupidity at the same time.

Music, Movies, and Books
I enjoy jazz, rock, funk, soul, blues, dubstep, reggea...actually anything that shivers my spine. Among favourites are Ratatat, The Cat Empire, Beirut, Muse, Franz Ferdinand, Arctic monkeys, Paolo Nutini, Hindi Zahra, Gotan Project, Yann Tiersen, Mumford and Sons, Chase & Status, Asian Dub Foundation, M83, Vlado Kreslin, Sigur Ros, Arcade Fire, Dub FX, Band of Horses, Etta James, Little Walter, Bon Iver, Alt-J, Radiohead, Raappaana and sooo many more...
Especially into films like Sin Nombre, Boys don't cry, Cidade de Deus, Biutiful, Blue Valentine, Single Man, Beasts of the Southern Wild, Into the Wild, The art of flight...
I think books (esp. poetry) save me every once in a while. I enjoy authors like Orwell, Salinger, Camus, Marquez, Neruda, Baudelaire, Zajc, Andrade, Rozewicz, Cummings, Borges, Pessoa etc.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Poetry and dance, if you're lucky combined. Pretty amazing on its own as well.
Standing on a snowboard on top of the mountain and a clear winter day...one of the most fulfilling and thrilling moments.
Music festivals with their wild, primal, human-spirit atmosphere. Any form of live music that gets your bones all shaken.
Nature that surrounds you with silence and immense power. Getting lost in it with people who connect with your 'gypsy' nature.
