About Me

I am a creative, independent person, into languages, communication, the arts, my garden, animals, philosophy and much more. Have been working as a filmmaker and writer for the past 10 years. I do improv comedy and work for TV. I spend a lot of time with friends from all over the world. My friends call me thoughtful, casual, original, old-fashioned, melancholic, self-reliant, funny, talkative, sociable, stupid, good-hearted, elusive.

Couch requests should be addressed to me personally. No generic requests please.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is a great idea, and I wouldn't want to have missed the encounters made via couchsurfing. Such great people from all over the world. I currently have a spare room to offer. I would consider myself a thoughtful, sociable, fun person and I prefer hosting/surfing with likeminded people.
