About Me

Heppa there, David is my name.
After graduating my studies in Germany, I have just returned from a year of working in Kyoto.
Although I've studied and worked in Japan, there still is a myriad of things to discover and deep digging to be done.
I think everybody should be able to think and act as freely as possible, as long as others are not harmed in the process.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I like people, especially open-hearted ones, and the principle of reverting money to trust, good company. The mutual exchange of knowledge and experiences appeals to me (making new experiences on the way).

Interests

Capoeira, hanging out with people, experiencing new places, stumbling upon new details in places I thought I knew, improvising, paying attention to detail, roaming around

  • photography
  • capoeira
  • running
  • working out
  • woodworking
  • leatherworking
  • boxing
  • sociology
  • film photography
  • reading and writing

Music, Movies, and Books

(the links are just quick examples; the list is of course less than incomplete, but I guess both of us don't feel like living in front of the computer forever in order to change that. Just ask me about other stuff if you want to know ;) )

Aside from that, anything that makes me wanna move, not move at all, create something and think about things. As said, too much to bother listing o_o
