CURRENT MISSION

Get inside beast brains

ABOUT ME

I hope free will exists, and that I have it, but if I don't then at least I am somewhat consoled by Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle. I love to hide and ambush/scare people (anyone) by pretending as a monster.

PHILOSOPHY

Be nice...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed in Toulouse, Lyon, Torino, Wien, Praha, Bruxelles, Boston, and Antwerp, and was part of the big July 2005 barbecue in Linz, Austria and the insane week-long October 2005 gathering in Montreal, then later Stockholm and Copenhagen. Hosted a bunch in Montreal after that, but have unfortunately done much less of that since then.

Interests

Oh heavens.... let's see, philosophy, science especially physics and psychology and biology (in biology, especially ecology, evolution, and animal behaviour/welfare and mental states), history and prehistory, archaeology, human origins, wildlife conservation, the theremin, politics, making amateur movies (I am "Indiana James" haha), this list is way too narrow and each of its points way too broad.
