About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Life is easy, remember?

ABOUT ME

I'm a filmmaker who wants to enjoy life and tell some interesting stories.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is easy, that's just easy to forget.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I made the promise of always having been to more countries than my age.

I've hosted a bunch of people in both Copenhagen and Prague, and stayed with even more.
For some reason I've been the first couchsurfer at most places I've surfed...

I prefer to host people who write something personal in the request.

Interests

Meditation, walking into buildings where you're not allowed and see how far you can go without being thrown out, take a story and break it into tiny pieces and cut them together again through light, sound, acting and emotions and being dragged along to places I have never seen before.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love directors that create magic in their films like Paul Thomas Anderson in "Boogie Nights", "Magnolia" and "Punch Drunk Love". I like a lot of recent Spanish dramas like "Abre los ojos" by Alejandro Amenábar, and "Lucía y el sexo" by Julio Medem. Basically anything with good story and acting, and a style that enhances the story.

When I'm by myself i mostly listen to chilled out music that makes me relax.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When travelling around Latin America, I never gave any money to beggars. Instead I gave 100$ to a cuban guy who never asked me for anything.
He and his wife had two small daughters and they wanted to build another room on top of their one-room house. So with the money they could buy a bicycle taxi and have a steady income for many years. So if you ever go to Santiago de Cuba, you'll find a bicitaxi with my name painted on it...

Teach, Learn, Share

Everything is on the internet if you search hard enough for it.
I love every idea that makes life easier: esperanto, meditation, euros, deezer.com among other things.
