I'm European-born, but I've been living in Canada for a long time. I also spent a few years in the United States (Florida and San Francisco).
I've traveled to many places in Europe and North America, and I'm planning to visit a few other continents as well.
I have many interests — variety is the spice of life! I know that life is too important to take seriously.
When hosting, I have a nice place in downtown Vancouver (Yaletown area) close to everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My friends who are using it recommended it as they had great experiences, and it sounds like a great way to meet more people from all over the world!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds music. For partying especially, I like house and techno; for serious listening, classical (love Schubert) and jazz. Live music is important, and I like going to concerts, whether big or small.

I read both fiction (Henry James, Joseph Conrad, etc.) and non-fiction (Antonio Damasio, Alan Bloom, etc.).

I watch all kinds of movies, but some of my favourites are La Dolce Vita, Lawrence of Arabia, Dr. Strangelove, Inception, The Conversation, and 아가씨.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once, while hiking, I was stalked by a cougar (mountain lion) for a while, but didn't get eaten.
