HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

if people say yes i then will be on their couch... if not, then i won't be.
if people ask me and i'm free AND we have something in common to chat about then you will be welcome.
i'm always up for a general coffee shop, tea on the sea, or walk in the park meeting though...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

couchsurfing rocks, when you can meet those you can share with. :)

兴趣

trying to understand and live with true freedom (in my decisions and actions) without the unbearable lightness of being spinning me out, nor the standard life plan scenario getting me down

  • coffee

  • surfing
  • sailing
  • sports
  • languages
  • farming

音乐、电影和书籍

lots of all of these things

books: but yes i like classic fiction a lot like Dracula, Wuthering Heights, Crime and Punishment, Master and Margarita, anything a bit dark and famous

that goes for music and movies too

music: brakes, mogwai, the vaccines, magnetic fields, bloc party, vampire weekend, artic monkeys, manu chao, zaz, cat power, gogol bordello, the postal service, veronica falls and a wide range of other random stuff including jazz, classical, live drumming like batucada, world, rap, white boy rap, salsa, any songs spanish people sing, etc

and some special 1 songers when i need to/want to get psyched up - the only ones - another planet, icona pop (embarrassing I know), flo rida, justice vs. simian, fatboy, m.i.a., loyle carner...

movies: scorsese, woody a, almodovar, amenabar, jarmusch, truffaut, luc besson (muah), haneke, polanski, true romance, the shining, deer hunter, halloween (up to and including the 3rd one!), the incredible shrinking woman, mr. mom, heathers

those featuring: ewan mcg, deNiro, daniel bruhl, gael garcia bernal, young harrison ford, christopher walken, buscemi, thora birch, scarlett johanssen, bill murray, ray liotta, die hard bruce willis, christian slater, winona ryder, eduardo noriega, javi bardem, meryl streep, romain duris

and shamefully, when i am alone, a lot of that rubbish junk made for girls like devil wears prada, bridget jones diary, it's complicated, and as good as it gets, but if you ask me in public i'll change the subject, mention mise-en-scene, or start talking about the serious truth in the struggle to understand the fine line between good and evil in Batman - The Dark Knight

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

inca trail 14 times (due to work as a coca leaf farmer)

教,学,和分享

like those who have different stories to tell, who like to push their stories in your face or slowly let them slip out like pencils falling from a shirt pocket as the owner slowly bends over.
i also love all languages except english (which i think is only ok in its unification value but destroys small pieces of my heart as it gentrifies the world tongues)
i also like detective work

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

good company, stories, opinions and views, including the flexibility to have mine changed, techniques for online detective work, my 'anyone can do anything' philosophy if they really want to (and if you meet someone who literally can't, then try to help them!)

quote by a generally infamous and known to be self-interested writer, which goes against that reputation:

"Every man is working out his destiny in his own way and nobody can be of any help except by being kind, generous, and patient."

-Henry Miller
