Overview
About Me
Question "how would your friends describe you?" : They would probably say "That guy has an opinion on everything and will harass you with it, if you want or not". Or maybe "That guy talks an awful load of nonsense all day". But they might also say "He is fun to be around, and he will stop talking and instead listen to you if you badly need to talk to somebody". I choose to believe they say the latter... They better do, they're my bloody friends!
PHILOSOPHY
“Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.”
― Terry Pratchett, Jingo
I choose to take it as: I´d rather die, consumed by the fire of a passionate life then vegetate endlessly in the dim light of mere survival
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Surfed a lot of times, with and without the website. Met a lot of wonderful people. I love that it gives you a very different perspective then the typical tourist one when travelling.
Also hosted a couple of times since I'm back from travelling
Interests
playing the drums, since Australia also the ukulele and guitar, snowboarding, kite-surfing, scuba diving (I'm a certified divemaster), music, listening to it and playing myself, salsa dancing, sketching, arguing, confusing people
