CURRENT MISSION

I'm a proper hermit in my spare time, so I'm here to make new contacts.

ABOUT ME

I love life, and getting the most out of it - something I don't do often enough. I spend every waking moment being as creative as possible. I'm an artist, and that's something I'll never stop being for as long as I breathe.

PHILOSOPHY

"Bad things aren't the worst thing that can happen to us. NOTHING is the worst thing that can happen to us!" - Richard Bach (from his book "One").
Otherwise you'll just have to ask me what my views are on different things. I've got plenty to say.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Uh... How DO I participate? I'll do my best, but I'm truly new to this. Give me tips whenever you want. Much appreciated.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None (yet).

Interests

Music, design, film, reading, photography, spooning, drinking coffees of all different sorts, drinking wines (preferably red, since white tastes like beer most times), cooking... All those things help keep my mind working.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: JUST ASK ME! I don't know what the limit for characters used is. Lots of indie films, and then other charming ones that aren't so unrealistic (e.g. Garden State, House of D, United States of Leland).
Music: Deftones, A Perfect Circle, Team Sleep, Tool, Esbjörn Svensson Trio, Emptyself, Abandoned Pools, and loads more.
Books: I recommend ANYTHING by John Irving, "Body and Soul" - Frank Conroy, "High Society" - Ben Elton, "One" - Richard Bach, "Catch 22" - Joseph Heller, etc

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was born and have survived 19½ years of my own life. I'd like to see you try to do that.
Otherwise I don't have a lot to put among my achievements trophies.
My dad and I spend a month riding the rails (Interrail) through Europe. That was something I'll never forget, even if I try with all my might.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can inform you to the best of my knowledge on politics, and music, and movies. I'm not a great teacher otherwise. But stop by and I can show you some stuff (visual aid is my strong point).
