Keeping it real

ABOUT ME

I'm basically an untidy lazy contemplative person that travels too much, I guess that's my personal weapon against boredom.

PHILOSOPHY

Versatile

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting when I can and being a guest when
accepted.
Being as nice as I can to anyone that addresses
me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

TOO MANY, and it started long before knowing about CS..

Interests

I'm confusely into many things: I periodically start a new activity just to drop the former. Contemporary Dance and Foreign Languages are my "thing". Well,kinda.

I love animals and hate whoever hurts them... someone could think I prefer them to humans. Well, depends on the human, I guess.

Music, Movies, and Books

INDIE ROCK- World's hardest music gender to define; Trip-hop (Portishead, Tricky...), electro (Lali Puna,Múm, Gotan Project...) sing songwriters (Lenny Cohen, Nick Drake...) folk, samba, salsa, tropicalismo (Caetano Veloso, Seu Jorge...), african music, ambient (Boards of Canada...); beautiful experimental covers of crappy hit-list tunes.... and New Weird America (DEVENDRA BANHART, Joanna Newsom...) '90/'00 (Adam Green, Elliot Smith, CocoRosie, Feist...), Piano Music (ERIC SATIE, Keith Jarret..)
I'm more into instrumental, minimal, relaxing, world music nowdays. Every circoular rythm (me loves percussions) will help me build a real coreography in my mind. Unfortunately my room is not big enough to satisfy my dance obsession, hence my bruises..

I like, among other things, Hispano-American literature and Canadian authors.

Cinema is always good as long as it has nothing to do with commercial productions&dull subjects. Dude, I'm in love Wim Wenders... and also...what about Bergman's magnificent movies?? Thank God this world is full of great directors. Lately I got very into Miranda July and her work. And Achero Mañas (see Noviembre, plese!)

Two books that changed my life (and made me cry my *** off):

"The God of small things" by Arundhati Roy
"The favourite game" by Leonard Cohen
And Tagore. And Poems. AND Cortázar. And Neruda, Neruda, Neruda.
