About Me

CURRENT MISSION

...making the coffee at work

ABOUT ME

I have a multiple character disorder in a healthy way... my description changes depending on the people I am hanging out with.
- acc. to my mom -> best boy on earth
- acc. to my best friend -> the best friend ever :P
- acc. to my ex-flat mate -> a great cook!
- acc. to my colleagues -> has nice chat and an athletic body :)
- acc. to others -> has always some liqueur...

PHILOSOPHY

...living a life of truth, avoiding hypocrisy towards others and myself... facing the reality and embracing the life with its goods and bads... becoming in charge of the happenings in my life and controlling the things surrounding me... but on top of all "take it easy dude :)"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted some people and I had been a guest for some others. All were nice experiences...

Interests

I am interested in photography, you can have a look at my pictures in http://dbaran.deviantart.com/

I like sports, I am rowing, boxing and go jogging once in a while.

I am interested in world politics and philosophy... probably my biggest wish is to witness a great change on the world

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to alternative/rock music mostly, like Killers, Keane, Muse etc. I also enjoy classical, opera, blues/jazz at times. But I try to stay away from the types that I cannot even spell correctly, such as Hip-hop, R&B, house, trance...

Movies are divided into three categories for me; first are the ones I watch for entertainment like sci-fi, adventure, action etc. Second are the ones to satisfy my aesthetic hunger, like, dramas, short movies, movies of famous directors etc. and the last are documentaries, I spend a lot of time watching documentaries on political, philosophical and environmental issues.

I like reading philosophy and politics... it is the best when they are together :) like in Marx's, Chomsky's or Sartre's books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have done a Road-Trip across USA :) That was amazing!
