About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Tour the world. Meet people. Learn a lot of languages. Spread happiness. Be responsible. Maybe some day get out of the Samsara?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My experience of CS is that many CSers are aged 18-24 and I assume quite a big percentage of these people is studying so be aware that you might have some difficulties to find a couch during some periods of the year, mainly because of the exams (for instance June).
But overall CS is great, totally great. Meeting local people who are willing to share their interest, passion about their city or country is just unique and I hope CS will have a long lasting life.
Seems common to say, but once something has been created, you can't make as if it had never existed...

Interests

too many to list... :-)

  • socializing
  • languages

Music, Movies, and Books

Last good movie seen on screen: Das Leben der Anderen
Last good movie seen on TV: Eyes Wide Shut
Last good movie seen on Youtube: err.. is there a such thing?

My dream would be to see a solo concert from Keith Jarrett. A glimpse at what I hear (partly): http://www.last.fm/user/danforqls/

Books? I love them. Have plenty (also plenty left to read...hem). I'm bookcrossing by the way. Do you bookcross?
