About Me

Kind of a trick question I guess. Well, I'm creative and like creative people. Being creative isn't just about physically creating objects or terming ideas; it's about how you live your life and handle conversations and different situations. I'm extremely easy going, I like to keep the atmosphere cool and relaxed. If you handle a conversation with me, you can expect a lot of dry humor. I'm not cynical though - I'm just interested in how people think and feel.

PHILOSOPHY

People should be as good to each other as they can.
Kind of brief, I know, but why clutter the mind?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I lived in Berlin for a week with two other friends. We were hosted by Arthur Vidal (see friends) in his awesome CS community, it was the best experience ever! We got to hang out with great people from all over the world who were also staying over and experience the city in the best way possible. I was also hosted in Madrid, Barcelona, Paris and Berlin (a second time) and it has made my trips so much better and more interesting.

Interests

I like books and movies and ideas. I like to listen to interesting people talk. I don't smoke but don't mind smoking, and I mostly like people with a healthy and/or interesting approach to life.

The usual suspects: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Fight Club, Shawshank Redemption, American Beauty, The Royal Tenenbaums, Meaning of Life, Ferris Beuler's Day Off, The Princess Bride, Oldboy, Miyazaki, David Lynch, Terry Gilliam, Woody Allen.

Not-so-usual suspects: Toto the Hero, Magnolia, Fog of War and anything by Errol Morris, Tarnation, Pride & Prejudice (Will Wright), Koyanisqatsi, The Squid and the Whale.

As for music, I got for everything from bad 80s synth to current Hip Hop to classical music and back again. In parties I go for Drum n' Base or 80s. Random list: Tiga, Aimee Mann, Kanye West, Claude Debussy, Destroyer (Dan Bejar), Thomas Newman, Phillip Glass. Very random indeed.

TV shows: Sopranos, The Wire, Firefly, Monty Python's Flying Circus.

Books I won't go into, but let's just say Kurt Vonnegut and call it a day. Also JD Salinger. Yeah. Salinger. Big time.
