Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a couch.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met quite a few people through couch surfing and some people who were already members. Everyone I have met has been very friendly, helpful and trust-worthy.

Interests

I`m interested in everything (except maybe sports). I love to read, write and to learn. I used to study Wing Chun Kung-fu for about six years. I'm Particularly fascinated by Chinese culture and philosophers such as Lao Tzu.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite books are Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe and Island by Aldous Huxley. Favourite films include The Big Lebowski and Dr Strangelove. To many favourite musicians to list here.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I have ever done relates to a time I was practicing Thai-Chi in a forest. I will save the details for when we meet or else you`ll probably think I`m nuts.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn about all kinds of things. I`m always trying to learn new languages, although I only speak one language fluently (bad english). I'm always keen to expand my knowledge of authors, films and musicians. I also love to share some of my small knowledge with others.
