After five years of absence from my favorite city in the world, and many travels in between, I have returned to Paris, and even managed to get myself an apartment that will lend itself to hosting again.
This is good.

Not anymore, moved to Malta, this is also good.

Now then, I used to be a programmer, and I was pretty good at it too, but then I got bored so I tried to become a filmmaker and made a feature film. In between, I ran a music studio and record label for a while, but that's another story.
Turns out, not a lot of money in either of those ventures, at least not the way I was doing it.
You know, I have this thing about running an honest operation, and this does not seem to please the financial gods.
Anyway, this has returned me to the world of programming, which is alright I suppose.
The only change I made is to only use the code for good causes from now on, no more online casino websites, and shit, at the moment I am working on shaping a better system to aid the European refugee crisis.

So yeah, I am hosting again... I think I am a pretty good host, and as long as you're chill, I am pretty flexible.
Don't really care if you read my profile or not, don't really care if you copy/paste your request, I know very well how much effort can go into finding a couch, and there are better things in this world to worry about.

Basically treat that shit like Pat Benatar: No promises, no demands.

Hit me up!

Ah, scratch some of that... Moved back the mother-city Rotterdam. Malta was not working out.
Also no longer working on the refugee crisis, though it is hardly a solved problem.

Now I work to reduce global food waste through technology. It's pretty interesting from the technology side, and helping the environment is an easy win benefit.
It won't take long though, I am about to go back into the madness of movie-making.

Noooope, let's forget most of that. Granada Spain is where "it" is at, and I plan to find it too. Still working on setting up the living situation, but it will be relatively epic. Will start actively hosting again in September (of whatever year).

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

I've been on Couchsurfing for many years now, first got introduced to it by my then-roommate, who used it a lot at the time, and then when the time came I moved to London, I relied on it for a while to get settled.
Then I decided I should probably give back what I took from the community and started hosting people, which were for the most part pretty rewarding experiences.

At the moment, now that I have moved back to Paris I am pretty open to whatever any guests would like. I can show you around a little, or you can be on your own, whatever.
I do work all day, so it would have to be evenings if we were to be hanging out.

But that was then, and this is now... Now I am in Malta, and it is good. Still working on Music all the time, less on my movie, but the programming never stops. Man's gotta eat and all that jazz.
Nice island, I hear diving is kind of paradise here.

Back in Rotterdam (Netherlands), working on fighting food waste with technology, while starting a production company that has spectacular visual storytelling their core-guideline, money comes second. Or, even third. I want to make great art for other performers, so like music videos or something, but I will be hiding some of my own stories encoded ancient and ever more modern codes embedded, all to tell a hidden story.

That's why I quit my job.
