ABOUT ME
As an expat I enjoy meeting other travelers!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Was hosted and hosted a number of people around 2008-09 but have not used couchsurfing since then (unfortunately!!). Mid-2020 I'm re-opening my account as I finally settled down and felt like I had space and time to meet travelers.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
First week of dec '08 I did my first CS experience, found myself hosted by a family who unexpectedly found itself accepting 6-7 different CSurfers all at once. Definitely the best first experience I could get.
Interests
Sports: snowboarding, soccer, martial arts, hacky sac, swimming. I love to read on just about anything, from science to politics to philosophy to literature - I take every opportunity to learn as a gift. When I travel what I enjoy the most is hiking trips and bike around cities. I love theater, used to act myself when I was younger.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Bedouin Soundclash, Sublime, Sting & The Police, Manu Chao, Jack Johnson...
Movies: they did enrich my life and still do.
Books: novels I would recommend are those of Michel Houellebecq (especially Elementary Particles & Platform). Thomas Mann's The Magic Mountain ranks top 3.
